This is a list of top-ranked university debaters from New Zealand university debating competitions.
To keep the list at a reasonable length, only individuals who have won, or been best speaker, at one of the following New Zealand tournaments are included:
- The Officers' Cup competition at the New Zealand University Games (the New Zealand Universities Impromptu Debating Championships);
- The Joynt Scroll (New Zealand Universities' Prepared Debating Championships); or
- The New Zealand British Parliamentary Open Debating Championships.
Individuals' achievements at major international tournaments are also noted, primarily:
- The Australasian Intervarsity Debating Championships; and
- The World Universities Debating Championships;
The primary purpose of this list is to compile a list of highly ranked debaters in New Zealand competitions. As such, individuals need not have their own articles to be listed here, and individuals who are best-known primarily for their debating achievements need not have separate articles created for them.
Information on each debater includes their university, and debating achievements.
