District 6 - Judging seminar contact

[Larry Diamond]

Ron,

You bring up a good point.

I would like to recommend that the NSRCA post where the judging Clinics are around the country. Although I'm in D4, I'm closer to some of the D3 and D5 contests than in my own district. It would be helpful to see if one is closer in another district. It may also help attendance for those putting on the Judging Clinic.

The NSCRA schedule currently shows the seminars for 2002.

See ya,

Larry

    If you attend the NATS with us this year as required, you can take the judging clinic in Muncie Sunday night.


  What Gray says is absolutely correct, BUT I would only recommend attending the Sunday judge training session as the last resort. First, an Intermediate pilot attending his first Nats will be almost overwhelmed by it and that's not the time to be trying to learn how to judge. Second, I do the judging matrix for the Nats and I will only use an Intermediate judge if he/she responds to the judging questions in the entry form in such a way that I feel he/she is competent to judge Advanced pilots fairly. We hope that all pilots will have attended a judge training clinic and have done some judging at local contests before showing up at the Nats. Most of the Intermediate pilots are assigned to do flightline frequency control. Only the pilots who have attended a judge training clinic and report confidence with judging one class up or down are assigned to judge at the Nats. It's only right that competitors be judged fairly by experienced judges.

    Ditto on the desire to attend a judging clinic, I'm in the Dallas area (also
    District 6).

    I'm told they had one for D6 the year before last, but I didn't hear about
    one last year.

    Sorry to have to post this on the discussion, but maybe someone else needs
    it too?  :)

    New Intermediate flyer planning to make the nats this year, but would also
    like to learn more from my flying and be better help to the contests by
    attending a judging clinic prior to the contest season. I have my wife and
    another new Sportman flyer to take the class too. I live just north of
    Tulsa.

    Can anyone advise of a clinic plan?  I think Mike Darnold had one in 2003 in
    the OKC area....(which would be pretty nice for me:)but certainly not
    required....maybe Dan Curtis will do one out of Springfield MO?)

    Thank you,
