What is a debate?

The Hunt Cup is an annual debating competition which enables law students from across the faculty to debate on a broad range of contemporary and contentious issues. The competition is sponsored by local leading international law firm DAC Beachcroft so there are plenty of opportunities to network throughout the competition over a drink or two with their lawyers! Although the Hunt Cup is branded as a 'competition', there is nevertheless a relatively informal social atmosphere with drinks occurring both before and after debates! Anyone is welcome to join the competition, regardless of debating experience.
