 * The main idea of a debate is to win the audience and mainly the adjudicator on what your team’s side has been given. There is two sides debating on an issue, this is also the same in politics except they usually go on and on a lot longer than usual debate, about what they believe is right. I am going to write about what the first speaker usually puts in their speech. **
 * The first speaker usually opens with a team split, which is a catchy sentence that everyone says in their speech at the start and at the end. **
 * They then say good morning/afternoon to everyone in the room. **
 * The next thing they do is say their team’s definition of the topic, this doesn’t take a side, it makes you think who and what are involved. The other team will either accept or reject the definition of the topic. If they reject it, they must put their own in. **
 * Then usually they say what their whole team is going to talk about, they first say themselves, then they will say what the 2nd speaker will talk about, but they don’t normally mention the 3rd speaker, because they just do rebuttals and sum up their teams arguments. **
 * The main part of the speech is next, the three arguments. These are three different ideas that will support their team’s argument/view. The arguments should be clearly separated and must have a strong point and you could also add examples to make it even stronger. **
 * After you do your 3 arguments you summarise what you have said in not too much detail. But you should put some new examples in for the same arguments to make it more interesting. **
 * Last you will put in your team split(catchy sentence)in, it has to be the same one as the start of your speech and the same as your teammates. **
