The Indonesian Varsities English Debate for the first time since its conception in 1998 will have separate knockout rounds for novice teams in its 14th run, which will start on Jan. 21, 2011 in Makassar. The best four novice teams on the tab that fail to proceed to the main octofinals will go into the 'Novice Semifinals'. The two winning teams from that round will battle it out in the 'Novice Final', which will take place simultaneously with the main quarterfinals. Here are the requirements for teams to be considered as 'Novice'.
1. All three members of the team should be first or second year students
2. All three members of the team have never broken into the knockouts of any major national tournament
3. All three members of the team should pass the interview phase which will verify their eligibility
