Welcome! Every year, in the first weekend of UCR’s Fall Break (mid-October), a team of enthusiastic students organizes the Roosevelt Open. Everyone is welcome to attend one of the best-known British Parliamentary-style debating tournaments in the Netherlands.

In 2017, the tournament will be held on 14 and 15 October, with pre-reg on Friday the 13th (don’t worry – we’ll make sure nothing bad happens to you that day). As always, you can expect a solid CA team, excellent judges and the chance to debate in one of the most beautiful buildings of the Netherlands.
