Judges:

In order for this tournament to happen effectively, we need judges to be registered into speechwire.com as well as the kids. Your judges will need to create an account on speechwire.com. Once that is done, you or they can register themselves if you give them the tournament info.

Judges need to be able to get updates, through either emails or texts, or both. They also need a device on which to judge. This can be a phone, a laptop, a tablet, etc.

Thanks again, and we hope to see you here.
