​Last weekend our beginners were able to prove their newly acquired knowledge and skills. The Viennese debate club hosted an English beginner's tournament: "Vienna Freshers 2019". Two of our teams (Niklas and Adrian / Altan and Arin) as well as our judge Yimin broke to the finals. But that is still not all: Altan and Arin also won the final, congrats! 

As in the previous years, we will offer a beginner's program at the start of the winter semester 2019/2020. It comprises a series of 7 introductory seminars every Wednesday at 6pm starting from 16 October 2019, followed by our club debates at 7pm (both in German and English). There's no need to register for the beginner's program, you can join at any time. 
Additional to that we will also have our annual German novice tournament (the "Transrapid-Turnier", Registration needed) on the 30th of November. - Looking forward to seeing you! ​

After an incredibly successful year, the new board consisting of Yimin, Florens and Kenno was elected this week. We thank the previous board for their hard work and look forward to another successful year of debating.
