Judge ballot sheets are available at the ballot table for every round. Critique sheets and maps should be with the head-coach packet along with a handout titled JUDGES' INFORMATION. We have found this handout to be beneficial. If you need extra maps or critique sheets, they will be available at the ballot table.
