Event Information

There are many people I've met in the Phoenix Valley area who are interested in judging, whether for personal reasons or because they are an employee of a store and want to learn how.

As the last remaining active L2 Judge in Arizona, I want to impart my knowledge and experience to people who are interested in learning. I will host a local conference at Mox Chandler and do several presentations on practical judge skills, event organization(focus on RCQ's), basics of rules and policy, the philosophy behind events, how to improve after watching these presentations, and how to become certified and advance as a judge.

Please attend this conference if you live in Arizona, esp the Phoenix area, and you are looking to judge events.

The schedule is:

12 pm - 1 pm: Intro and Overview to Running Events at Comp REL
1 pm - 2 pm: Logistics, Format Differences, What do you need from the Organizer 
2 pm - 3 pm: RULES, how you can run good events without learning 1 million corner cases
3 pm - 4 pm: POLICY, aka what you should be focusing your energy toward learning instead of rules
4 pm - 5 pm: Additional Practice Scenarios, General Questions, and Staying Connected as an AZ Judge Community.
