Event Information

This event will be held from 30th August to 1st of September, with last chance trials being held on Friday. The format is M14 Sealed/Booster Draft.

There are two types of sponsorship that you can apply for, Volunteer and Room. When applying, please indicate ALL types of sponsorship you are willing to accept. You may apply for Saturday and Sunday, or all three days. All applicants must be available to work until at least 20:00 on Sunday but some judges may be asked to stay later. If you apply for Friday, you need to be available from 11.00 hours so please make sure you are able to be on site at that time.

You may also apply as a STANDBY judge. Spare judges may be asked to work if attendance exceeds our expectations. If standby judges are not needed, they will receive free entry to the Grand Prix main event. The number of standby slots is limited to 7. When you apply for this position, please provide your mobile phone number in your application.

If selected for room sponsorship, your hotel room will be paid from Friday night to Monday morning. If you wish to stay longer, you have to make the arrangements yourself. You will share the room with another judge (unfortunately we can't accommodate staying with a spouse/friend, etc.).

Additional room costs, food, taxis, etc. will not be paid for, but you will receive a food allowance each day you work.

You have a better chance of being accepted if you are an active judge in your community and you speak Czech or Slovak. Judges not fluent in this language must speak English sufficient to operate in a tournament setting.

Please bring appropriate judging attire, including a black judge shirt and black trousers with belt. If you do not have a shirt, please let us know so one can be provided for you.

Compensation depends on your level and the amount of days you work. In addition to the number of boxes outlined below, you will receive a package of judge foils (dependent of level). Compensation will be settled when the GP top 8 has started, and is given in English product of the current set. Please make sure that you are able to take your compensation home with you from the event. Arrangements to ship product after the event are not possible.


Floor Judge L1 - 1 display per full day worked
Floor Judge L2 - 1.5 display per full day worked
Floor Judge L3+ - 2 display per full day worked

Judges performing special roles within the event may receive extra product.


Please note that there will be NO judge conference on Friday of the GP this time.
