New York Parliamentary Debate League
NYPDL Camp 2026
The New York Parliamentary Debate League will be hosting their 5th annual Summer Camp from August 7th to 9th, Friday to Sunday. This camp is fully free, virtual, and open to anyone who is interested, regardless of skill level. With "Lab Leaders" (highly skilled debaters or coaches), campers will engage in drills and practice rounds, then compete in a spar tournament on the final day of the camp to hone their abilities.

Volunteer to be a Lab Leader or Lecturer
-
To be a Lab Leader, you must be at least a rising senior in high school, with some exceptions for very experienced rising juniors.
-
Lab leaders will be asked to lead a group of 10-15 debaters for two days and to judge rounds during the spar tournament on the third day of the camp.
-
We are looking for lab leaders who are not only knowledgeable about debate, but also excited to share their knowledge and help others improve their skills.
