This event has been cancelled, we hope to see you at a rescheduled event later this year.

Welcome!

Judge Nationals 2020 is approaching!

This event is designed to give judges who don't get a chance to play at Competitive Rules Enforcement very often an opportunity to do so, as well as giving people an opportunity to judge at a larger Competitive Rules Enforcement Level event.
2018's event saw 55 judges play in an amazing social event for the the judge community, 2019 saw 43, and this one is going to be even bigger and better!

As many of you likely noticed, this event is earlier in the year than previous ones.
This is to help encourage all judges to join us, whether continuing into 2020 with Judge Academy or not, and to celebrate the past and look forward to the future.

The formats will be a combination of Modern and Draft in the Swiss, with a Modern top 8.

Players

If you're interested in playing in this event, please apply choosing "Playing" in your application. (you don't need a cover letter if you're not interested in judging).
When accepted, you'll be able to access the registration link.

Entry will be £30.
The swiss portion of the tournament will include 3 rounds of draft and at least 3 rounds of Modern, and the top 8 will be Modern.

We are planning to put a lot into prizes, including Judge Foils and/or Boosters, and a trophy/belt/handshake for the winner.
The full prize selection will be announced closer to the event.

We will be looking at getting various amounts of swag for the event similar to the last two years.

There will be exclusive playmats for Top 8.

Ticket sales will be made available in mid-January, at which point a link will be provided in the event forum.

Judges

We will be looking for a Head Judge and 1 floor judge as a minimum, along with a 1 or 2 standbys.

Compensation for the day will be a minimum of £75 + lunch for each judge.
The Head Judge will receive an additional £25.
All judges will also receive a judge-labelled event playmat.

If you are in need of judge experience for the level 2 process, please include this in your application.

All standby judges will get free entry into the event.

We aim to have selected a judge team by February, so if you wish to judge, please get your application in before then.
Applications will remain open after this to allow people wanting to play to continue to apply.
