National Golden Gavel
Each year, young lawyers test their public speaking skills and comedic genius at Golden Gavel competitions across the country. The winners of each state and territory competition face off at the National Golden Gavel, to prove that an ounce of wit is worth a pound of argument.
The prestigious National Golden Gavel, presented by the Australian Young Lawyers' Committee of the Law Council of Australia, provides an opportunity for young lawyers to showcase their advocacy and comedy skills, with each given five minutes to argue their case on a usually far-fetched topic - revealed only 24 hours beforehand.
Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the National Golden Gavel Dinner will not be held during 2020.
