None, but a student cannot be in two block events AND Extemporaneous Speech

Students draw a random tech-related topic and have 15 minutes to prepare a 3–5 minute speech. The speech is delivered without outside resources or prewritten material. Judges evaluate organization, speaking style, and how well the student addresses the topic. This event builds confidence and quick thinking. If you enjoy public speaking or thinking on your feet, this is your kind of challenge. It’s perfect for future leaders, politicians, or performers.
