To apply, please click on the 'Apply Now' link. There are three application options: Room Sponsorship, Volunteer and Standby. Please select all options that you would be willing to accept.

  • Room Sponsorship - this option is only available to L3+ judges
  • Volunteer - this option is open to all judges
  • Standby - this option is if you're willing to be a Standby Judge in the event you are not accepted as Volunteer or with Room Sponsorship, or if you prefer not to judge but are willing to be called up if required.

Judges accepted on Standby will only be called upon to work if GP attendance exceeds projected numbers. If not called upon, Standby judges will be given free entry to the GP. Standby judges who are called upon to work will receive the same benefits as judges who select Volunteer.
