Conclusion: 

The overall result of the event was a success and many participant as well as organizers enjoyed the event although it could’ve been made much more
better by having more efficient time management as well as the number of
schools which participated were higher than our expectation which resulted
in a more fierce competitiveness between students, using very unique public
speaking techniques and strategies, our main goal for organizing this event
was to have the students experience competition outside of their own school
with their same age group the benefits of this was fellowship between
students from various schools from sharing their ideas to competing with
each other while agreeing, disagreeing and further going in depth of the
knowledge of the topic which they presented about, these sorts of programs
encourage students to showcase their thinking pattern with others of their
age group and make progress while competing.
