Judges and Lecturers
Welcome to the Judges and Lecturers section. For new or prospective judges there are some good articles in the Judging Guidelines sectionand we would welcome further articles. Also in December 2013 the PAGB published an excellent e-news on Judging which can be found here.
As a Federation we are constantly looking for volunteers to join the Judges list. We currently have 43 judges within our Federation (29 on the Senior List and 14 Supplementary Judges). For clarification, a judge on the Senior list will be published in the PAGB Handbook and those on the Supplementary List are only published in the N&EMPF Directory. In order for the Federation to obtain feedback on judges and lecturers, there are assessment forms that can be downloaded from the site and sent to the Judges and Lecturers Secretary. This information will be very beneficial for Judges or Lecturers Seminars. We encourage all Supplementary Judges to get assessments when they visit clubs, as this will help considerably in assessing suitability to move to the senior list. The assessment forms to complete are to the right, just click the button to complete the form online. If you prefer you can download a pdf. There is a submit button on the pdf forms, however this only works if you use Outlook for your email. If you don't you will need to download the form, complete it and then attach to an email to send to the Judges Secretary. Latest Lecturers and Judges
Lecturers and Judges change quite frequently. The following links list the names as at 14th December 2020. Full contact details are available from the N&EMPF Lecturers and Judges Secretary.

Booking a Judge or Lecturer
Guidance Notes for Club Programme/Competition Secretaries
It is usually convenient to make the first enquiry by telephone to ensure the requirements and format of your meeting are acceptable to your invitee. You may also want more information about a lecture or presentation than can be included in these listings. A mutually acceptable date can quickly be agreed by telephone or e-mail if appropriate.
1. Promptly confirm an agreed booking in writing using the booking form and enclose an s.a.e if you require a written acceptance (alternatively this could be done by e-mail). Send a written reminder with directions to arrive 14 days before the booked date together with maps that are clear and include landmarks that are easily seen at night. Your own sketched map may be much better in this respect than a commercial map.
2. If possible please supply a mobile telephone number for the judge/lecturer to contact in the event of traffic or other problems, whilst travelling to your Club.
3. Make sure that your Club will provide an audience of sufficient size to warrant your visitors time and effort. Be in good time to meet your guest. Provide a parking space and assistance to carry in any materials.
4. In your printed programme always acknowledge the Federation from whose list the name was selected or the company name in the case of a sponsored lecturer. Also please make a point of using photographic awards, distinctions and honours when writing and in introductions made at the meeting.
5. Ensure that reimbursement of expenses is offered without any request needing to be made. Please note current PAGB rates is 45 pence per mile, unless otherwise agreed at the time of booking. Do be hospitable and make your guest feel welcome and respected.
6. Full details of the procedures to be used for engaging judges or lecturers and other helpful relevant information, are contained in the PAGB Handbook. It also lists judges and lecturers accredited by other Federations. Some may be able to visit N&EMPF clubs from neighbouring counties. The Handbook also gives details of Recorded Lectures available for hire to clubs.
