If selected for a lead role, you will lead a group of judges performing the roles outlined above. Judges will be accepted for lead positions by day. When applying for a lead position,

Welcome from BIGMAGIC:

 

I am Hidetoshi Ito, event manager of BIGMAGIC, and I will be managing the staff at Grand Prix Kyoto 2018.
We all appreciate your help with GP Kyoto 2018 and we want to raise the bar for this Grand Prix,
so please help BIGMAGIC and CFB Events to achieve this goal.

 

Our Main Goals are;

 

1. PROVIDE smooth tournament flow

Grand Prix are larger than ever in Japan:

 

Shizuoka 2016 - 2700 players (Cap 2700)

Nagoya 2016 - 2650 players (Cap 2700)

Tokyo 2016 - 3300 players (Cap 3300)

Kyoto 2017 - 2500 players (Cap 2500)

 

Please keep in mind that almost all venues in Japan must close earlier than venues in other countries;
therefore and in order to finish up the event as smooth as possible, please prepare for your role at the event ahead of time
(read the factsheet, look through the venue map, etc.)

 

2. CONNECT Japan and World

There are many great GP attributes Worldwide and there are many exclusive to Japan.
Our goal is to take the best attributes from both sides and make the whole Grand Prix experience even better.
