District Competition
Our district competition relies on volunteers from all participating schools to assist either as judges or scorekeepers. Because we can have around 20 battle running simultaneously, we have established specific instructions and guidelines for each judge and scorekeeper to use. This helps us be consistent in running competitions and making sure teams are being score fairly.
