A workshop is not complete if debaters can not test how well they've learned. CDA Tournament is scheduled on the last two days of the CDA, and it provides a opportunity for all the debaters to apply the skills they've acquired and test them in a truly competitive environment. CDA Tournament and Practice Debates also offers debaters exposure to a wide range of debate motions, so that people can get prepared for content frequently refered to in debates.

We look forward to seeing you in Shenzhen.
