Introduction to General & EFL League

HUFS-YTN Youth English Debating Championship has organized General League and EFL League separately since 2017. In pursuit of globalization, General League develops and grows into a competitive “International League” in the world. EFL League, on the other hand, is an independent league that aims for the spread of debate culture in Korean society for those students who have long been educated in Korea. EFL status would be revised accordingly. Please refer to the following requirements.
