Hello everyone,

We hope you enjoyed the Philspeaks Pro-Am 2020 competition that took place last Monday! Here’s our first volume of the new Philspeaks newsletter, that details all the motions we debated in the competition, with analysis tips and general feedback.

We will be having workshops in the new year with more volumes of the newsletter on the way, so do keep an eye out on that. If you wish to inquire about participating, or have any questions about the newsletter, or debating in general, please reach out to us by messaging this page on Facebook or by email at [email protected]

Keep safe!
