We did away with SJC on the 24th of October by beating them twice in a row. (I’m starting to like these double wins....!) These two debates were the last two debates for the league...after almost 6 months and 14 debates...we are finally done!
The first debate was a prepared one which we opposed (topic: THBT china should ratify the post Kyoto protocol) the second debate was an impromptu (we hosted both debates at the conference room) on the topic THBT peace is more important than Justice....which we proposed and went all philosophical with. As mentioned before we won both these debates.
These wins were absolutely crucial as SJc was ahead of us, but...well....Not anymore!! These two wins put us in second place, which means we have qualified for the finals! Find the current points table here:http://thedebaterscouncil.blogspot.com/
Well boys...seriously good job. Remember how we imagined this...well.....it came true!! And you guys made sure it did...so good job guys!..........but we also have the big one ahead of us. So as we celebrate and take a rest from all this which I think you guys deserve, we should also remember what’s ahead of us.
I would also like to thank Suganthi Teacher and Shanthi teacher for taking their weekends off to be there on the days we hosted the debates. And also of course everyone who helped us along the way....Khabir, Jeremy, Thanuja, Amirthajeewan, Amaan,Nishan and Nichula (Hope I’ve mentioned everyone!) Thanks a lot guys....we would never have gotten this far without you guys.
