How much of a time commitment is required for Mock Trial?
The time commitments for Mock Trial are two-fold. First, there is time committed to spending a weekend at each competition. The Butler Mock Trial Team generally goes to two to three competitions a year. The first is an A.M.T.A. sanctioned practice or scrimmage tournament. In the past, Butler’s team has gone to the University of Dayton for the practice tournament. Then the team goes to the regional tournament in mid-February. The team has the possibility of qualifying for nationals in either the silver or championship flights. This is in addition to weekly meetings of the team from early fall until the close of competition in February or March.
