Re: Rookie Team help with Judging!

I've found the best way to talk to judges is to just keep talking. When they ask you a question go into as many details as you can. As stated before, judges are just trying to get as much information as possible about your team. You can't do this by picking out just the information that can be crammed into a 5 minute time period. Just remember to be polite and know when to stop talking...being able to 'feel' out the conversation and know when this point is can only be learned from experience.

You never know, the smallest detail you talk about might the biggest "Aha moment" for the judges. Something you might think is normal and not worth mentioning might be the biggest differentiation between you and fellow competitors.

The advice in this thread are all excellent responses. I'm just throwing out what worked for me and my team.

Good luck, and welcome to FIRST!

PS. I know this response isn't that relavent the original question.
