Thank you again to all participants for your enthusiastic participation in a day of rigorous trials on 9th November 2024; speaking and judging at all four (or even five) events from 8am to 5pm is no easy feat!

And the two reserve breaking speakers:

We once again thank all judges, coaches, and student helpers – from SPCC, DBS, THS and DGS – who have given up their time selflessly and tirelessly such that this competition could be run smoothly and to such a high standard, and The Harbour School for lending us their grounds to run the Trials. We are grateful for your kind cooperation with us throughout the competition process and hope it was gratifying for all of you. These trials – and the continued success of public speaking in Hong Kong – could not be possible without you.
Looking forwards, we cannot wait to begin training with the team in preparation for WIDPSC 2025 held in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. For selected and reserve members, please continue to check your emails for follow-up information and arrangements from the coaching team. Thank you again and we look forward to seeing you at our future events!
