In the evaluation contest, every contestant evaluates the same speech - will they come up with the same recommendations? In the International speech contest, contestants have the chance to go all the way to the top and represent New Zealand at the Toastmasters International Convention in August. Last year the New Zealand representative was Matt Colcombe from Wellington's very own Business Breakfast Club. This time, could it be someone from your club?

Every club can send a contestant to each contest in their Area. Here's where you can go to support your club contestants. (Note: times are approximate. For actual start times, check with your Area Director.)
