To All NGJA Members,
I hope everything is well with you and your family during this time of COVID.
Get ready for the 4th annual NCAA Judges Challenge!!!
The 2020 NCAA Judges Challenge starts Tuesday, 17 November!!! The Judges Challenge is the best way to improve your knowledge of the COP and the application of its rules. By working with a group of judges you can discuss how rules are applied. Then, when the panel publishes their analysis, you can agree, disagree, talk about the differences and ultimately your judging knowledge will improve! In addition, you can practice your shorthand and talk about the differences in the JO program.
Registration information will be sent later this week and will close on 16 November. Therefore, form your team now and play to win NGJA apparel. Here is what you can do now to prepare:
• Call, text or email your judging friends and form your team now
• Each team must have 2 – 4 members and a team name
• The top 5 winning teams will all win NGJA embroidered polo shirts
• All routines will be judged using the new 2017-2020 COP with NCAA modifications
• Sharpen your judging skills and share your knowledge with your fellow judges
So, form your team NOW!!! The contest rules are attached to this email. Registration information will be sent out later this week.
Good luck to you and your team!!!
