Award-Winning Mock Trial Team

Notre Dame Belmont's (NDB's) Award Winning Mock Trial Team is the largest team of any kind at NDB, as well as the largest student organization overall. As the only all-female Mock Trial program in San Mateo County, we provide opportunities for the next generation of women to create community and act for justice, empowering students to bring the Notre Dame Hallmarks into the courtroom.

What is Mock Trial?

Mock Trial is an academic competition centered around a fictional criminal trial. Team members decide whether to specialize in Prosecution or Defense, and then each builds their side of the case: one arguing Guilty, the other Not Guilty. Teams compete against other schools at the official courthouse in Redwood City to see who made the best case and delivered the most entertaining performance. This includes witnesses who must know the facts of their witness statement, trial attorneys who must prepare direct and cross-examination questions, pretrial attorneys who argue constitutional issues relevant to the trial and even the court bailiff.
