The ASF Debate Team seeks to create an inclusive environment where any opinion counts as long as it is structured, purposeful and substantiated by evidence. As a team we participate in tournaments around Mexico City and the country with opportunities to participate internationally in the World Schools' Debating Championships which is held in different countries each year.

About Our Motions

The motions for the ASOMEX Halloween Tournament adhere to the American School Foundation’s vision and Mission and align with American, AP and IB curricular standards. The School, and therefore our tournament, is an inclusive and diverse community, offering an international, academically rigorous, university-preparatory education. In addressing our Core Value of Truth, our motions often examine preconceived notions of taboo subject-matter in a highly academic manner as we encourage the integration of multidisciplinary and often challenging perspectives to understand the human condition.

It is imperative that as a coach, judge, and debater you understand the expectations of the debate and how you will be evaluated. Please check out all information on these pages.
