This document provides information about judging speech contests at various levels - club, area, division. It summarizes the rules for minimum number of judges required at each level and highlights that mostly the same people judge contests. It then contrasts how judges and judging will change from a small pool focusing just on general scoring to a larger pool of judges who will score according to specific categories and their assigned weightings. The document proceeds to outline the criteria and categories for judging international speeches, table topics, and language as well as emphasizing that any competent Toastmaster who has completed the communication and leadership modules can judge by following the provided sheets.
