Judge Requirements:

In Policy, one judge may cover two entries.

In LD, one judge may cover three entries.

As our tournament attempts to provide national circuit level competition, we ask that all judges have national experience and be qualified in their event, subject to our approval. Please do not enter Parent or Lay judges. Please do not make us ask you to replace your judge.

Varsity debaters can judge Novice divisions, provided they are experienced Juniors or Seniors. If you enter varsity debaters as judges, you Must mark them as students, to prevent their misplacement.

All Judges will be required to have a judging philosophy sheet available on Tabroom.com. You MUST enter one on Tabroom to judge at the tournament.

An Extremely limited number of hired judges will be available for $450 each. Please contact us at timalderete@yahoo.com by Sept 15 if you need to hire judges. Hired judges are first come/first served – we have not always been able to fulfill late requests.

All judges are committed one round beyond their school’s elimination.
