The second wave of speech contest excitement is here again. It's time to get your clubs ready for the International Speech and Table Topic Contests.
As reported at District Exco and Council meetings during the KL Semi-Annual Convention, the District will continue with the practice adopted for the first round of contests.
Please be reminded that Areas with 4 clubs or less, the first two winners from each club will proceed to compete in the Area Contest. Divisions with 4 Areas or less will send in the two top winners from each Area to compete in the Division contests.
Divisions with 5 Area or more will send only the top winner from each Area to compete in the Division Contests.
Please read and be very familiar with the Contest Rule Book and Speech Contest Manual to enable you to advise your Clubs. The Speech Contest Rulebook on the TI website has been updated with the correct eligibility requirements.
Please check out the new TI speech contest rule book.

Important note:
Please ensure that contestants in the International Speech Contest must have completed six speech projects from the Competent Communication manual.
The District 51 Contests will be held on 1st May 2011 at the Annual Convention in Penang. All Divisions are advised to complete their Division Contests by 3rd April 2011 to give time for your Division Champions to prepare for the District contests.
Best Wishes and have fun while you plan and help organise the contests.
