Trusted by Tournament Directors since 2006

ForensicsTournament.net has been vital for us to sustain our Speech, Debate program during COVID. Before the first virtual tournament, none of the competitors/parents were confident the online tournament could work. But it was quickly proven that not only it works but also it increases access. In Spring and Summer 2020, we have attended 7+ online tournaments and 3 internal tournaments. All of them worked flawlessly. The participation increased 20+% over last year and more importantly it made possible for us to host our internal tournament. Thank you Danny and the entire ForensicsTournament.net team for making it happen!

Wei Wang, Executive Director, QD Learning

ForensicsTournament.net was WONDERFUL!!!! This program is a dream! When we have had questions, they have been answered quickly and thoroughly.

Katie Haynes, Forensics Coach, Toppenish High School

I went into online tournaments kicking and screaming. ForensicsTournament.net I has made that process FUN. I was so thrilled when I saw how effective ForensicsTournament.net seamlessly integrated with 8x8. I've run a lot of tournaments in my life and this tournament was is the most seamless ever! The staff at FTN is incredibly responsive. Thanks!
