Singapore Secondary Schools Debate Championships

In conjunction with the Julia Gabriel Centre, Debate Association (Singapore) jointly organises the Singapore Secondary Schools Debate Championships, colloquially known as "SSSDC" or "JGs".

 

Held every year from February to May, the Championship has in recent years featured over 80 schools from all over Singapore, debating in three preliminary rounds. The top eight teams in each of three divisions, progressively sorted by experience level in debate, will then proceed to the elimination stage Quarter-Finals and beyond.
