The Law Club debating competition, the Hunt Cup, provides a great way to sharpen your skills and enhance your employability. It is a safe environment for you to learn to express your opinions fluently, to show your flair and most of all to have fun!

Ø       Feel the adrenaline rush of winning without breaking a sweat.

Ø       Make your case with panache.

Ø       Be outrageous and shock your audience.

Ø       Then, celebrate your victory in style at drinks with our sponsors, Beachcroft.

There is no better forum in which to think creatively on your feet, to outwit your opponents, to sell your case with your astounding rhetoric...or just to blag your way to victory! Wow the judges and impress the audience with your way with words.

If you think that you can argue for England, prove it by entering our debating competition. If you haven’t debated before, pair up with a friend and surprise yourself.

Debating will boost your confidence, broaden your knowledge of controversial topics, and help you build persuasive cases. It is all good training for making your reputation as an advocate, for impressing during graduate recruitment, and for survival and success in the world beyond your degree.

The Hunt Cup is open to the entire law school and its free! So get yourself involved in one of the best ways of meeting people outside your year of study. To sign up, keep an eye on your email for more information.
