Welcome back to ANU Debating in 2026 🔥🔥🔥Join us at 6pm in Marie Reay 2.02, where we will kick off the semester with a show debate (and a pizza dinner ofc 😆). This internals will be a great place to meet new people, catch up with old friends, and get excited for upcoming comps. We'll provide everyone with pizza dinner, as we introduce the exciting events that 2026 has in store for debating, along with a brief how-to for those of you who are new to debating or need a quick refresher 🤗
Afterwards we will have a show debate where some of our best debaters battle it out on a topic you won't want to miss 👀 We will also be having a post-debate gathering at ANU's very own Badger and Co, where you will be able to mingle some more and have fun.
Regardless of if you are a seasoned pro (or dino), fresh nov, debated in high school, or are new to debating, there is something for everyone!
Please sign up at this link before Tuesday at 4pm so we can provide pizzas for everyone: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSePEYUfz0OasStsm7C76RJKoWY6nfyNIsD--LMmYnsrhwhAiA/viewform
Additionally, if you have any problems or accessibility needs, our Equity team is here to make sure that debating is a welcoming and accessible experience to all people.

If you have any questions about what Equity can do, we will also be having a short intro at internals and are always available to answer questions.
Finally, if you ever have problems with another member of the society and would feel uncomfortable debating with or being judged by them, you’re welcome to fill out this form below and we’ll accommodate that as best we can - https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSetlgQHENz_NqT7rIHGzgz9ImJcQ7au2i-kMEGsAqQOxX_w8A/viewform
