Upcoming Judge Swap Window
|
Coaches will be able to check your school’s judging assignments by day and event during the Judge Swap Window from Thursday, June 8 through Saturday, June 10 at 12:00 p.m. (noon) MT. There is no way to enter judge availability until the window opens. During the swap window, you will have a limited ability to swap your judges in Tabroom between the days your school has been assigned to accommodate their availability and ensure all of the days your school is obligated to judge in an event are covered. We understand that it can be hard to manage judge schedules, and we hope that this process will allow you the flexibility to schedule judging on the days and in the buildings that work best for you and your team! We will notify coaches via email when the window opens. Learn more about judging requirements »
