Competition Judges for 2020

Thursday, 09 January 2020 10:02

This is a reminder of how we deal with the thorny issue of those of you who DO and those of you who DO NOT wish to know the identities of the judges for our monthly competitions and challenges in 2020.

As in the past few years, we won’t be announcing the names of judges in club but their names are shown on our website.

To find the name of any judge we are using in 2020, please look in the website calendar (on the right hand side of our home page). Please note, the information won’t be visible unless you click on the link and open the calendar entry. The information is visible in either the entry night or competition dates.
