Interested In Sponsoring?


Sponsorship is critical for the growth of the Florida Debate Initiative's growth and long-term sustainability. We are in need of many resources that are critical to achieving our mission of enriching student's educations through the power of speech and debate. Sponsors can provide the necessary resources or funds to cover the costs of:

  • educational resources
  • tournament registration fees
  • transportation to and from competitions
  • additional training opportunities for coaches and students
  • scholarships for students who qualify to national championships
