Information for Community Judges
THANK YOU for your interest in judging at our Speech and Debate Tournament!!! We rely on community support to help our tournament run smoothly!!!
This website will allow you to pick the time that works best for you to judge.
Please click on the Judge Registration tab at the top of the page. It will walk you through the short registration process.
Please arrive to Judge Check-In one hour prior to your selected speech or debate round to order to receive an orientation.
During Judge Orientation, you will be given a good overview of the events and the judging process at the tournament.
Also if you arrive early, stop by Judge Hospitality where you will find a variety of good things to eat and drink. These goodies will also be available while you are completing your ballot.
You will receive an e-mail giving details about check-in, judge orientation, etc. approximately a week prior to the tournament.
