Foot in the door

Posted by NewtoTMAA on 3/5/2023, 6:47 pm

Hello all,

What are some ways to get my foot in the door to be invited to judge UIL or get asked to be an all region band clinician? I recently got on the provisional list and am eager to get some experience. I know it takes a lot of networking to get started, but I'm just curious if there are any appropriate practices to put ones name "out there"

Thanks in advance

Ask friends/colleagues to bring up your name at their Region meetings when everyone is picking judges. Good luck!

Let UIL Region Secretaries know that you are on the provisional list and willing to judge any of their events. Most of them are willing to help add good quality judges to the list. It also does not hurt the let colleagues in other regions know that you would like to have their support of a recommendation to their UIL ES to be considered as an adjudicator.
