You will be contacted with more information regarding our hiring of judges.  Contract judges will be offered judging assignments based on tournament needs and those judges capable of judging most or all events will be given preference in hiring.

Our contracted judge rate will be $15 per round judged for IEs, PF, and LD. CX rounds will pay $25.  Congress sessions will pay $30-45 depending on session length.  Hired judges must judge their assigned rounds and return ballots on time.  Judges are expected to write all comments on their ballots - no oral critiques.  Judges must also behave in a professional manner at all times and provide educational ballots that fairly adjudicate the round.
