Tonight there was a FLL Coach Chat and a great question came up. "Where can
I see presentations from other teams?"

The VERY BEST place to see presentations from other teams is to actually
get in the judging room! But certainly the people in the judging rooms must
be highly paid professionals or people who know someone, right? Well, in a
couple of weeks you are going to start seeing emails from Karen, our
wonderful tournament coordinator, where she will be asking for volunteers
for the judging at all of the regional events. Yes, the judges at all of
our events, as great as they are, are really just volunteers that replied
to Karen's email. If you sign up to do this, you will see first hand how
important the rubrics are, and you will get to see how several other teams
do at the judging.

As much fun as the Robot Game is, watching these highly motivated teams put
on presentations that would make Tom Hanks jealous is truly inspiring. You
really should do you and your team a huge favor and volunteer at least
once. You will get all the training you need, and probably a really lousy
lunch. And a T-shirt. But most importantly, you will get to see what really
goes on behind-the-scenes at this (not so) mysterious FLL judging.

Karen, sorry for stealing some of your thunder!
