The forensics teams of Marshall University and the University of Kentucky, the West Virginia Beta
Chapter and the Kentucky Nu Chapter of Pi Kappa Delta cordially invite you to attend the Hatfield
and McCoy Comprehensive Invitational Swing Tournament to be held on the campus of Marshall
University in Huntington, WV, on February 9-11, 2018.

The tournament will feature all ten NFA individual events, AFA program oral interpretation,
broadcasting, improv duo, NPDA parliamentary debate, and IPDA public debate. We will offer 2
preliminary rounds of competition in all individual events. All debate events will offer four rounds
of competition with the appropriate number of elimination rounds. Novice divisions and semifinal
rounds will be offered if warranted by the number of entries in each event. In events where no
novice round is warranted the top novice will be recognized.

Students will be allowed to cross enter between debate and IE with some limitations.

Awards will be presented to all elimination round participants as well as the top speakers in debate
and the top competitors entered in quadrathlon. Sweepstakes will be awarded to the top five teams
in individual events, debate, and combined. The top Pi Kappa Delta Chapter and top Sweepstakes
will be recognized for the top teams at both halves of the Swing. We will also offer the same
hospitality you’ve come to expect at a tournament hosted by both schools at a nominal fee.

The deadline will be 5:00 pm, Tuesday, February 6, 2018. You may enter at Forensics
Tournament.net.

You will discover the rest of the details about the Hatfield and McCoy Swing in the tournament invitation. Please let us know if you have any questions!
