Oxford Open 2026: volunteers needed (tab, runners, judges)

Amelia Hart·31d ago
Planning for next year's Open starts embarrassingly early, and this is that post. We need: two people to shadow the tab team (full training given, genuinely useful skill), runners for the Saturday, and — most importantly — members willing to judge. If you've spoken for a term, you can judge a novice room, and nothing improves your own speaking faster. Reply below or grab me on a Thursday.

In for judging. Ranking four teams once taught me more about weighing than a term of speaking did.

I'll shadow tab. If I'm going to lose quarter-finals on speaks I'd at least like to understand the spreadsheet doing it to me.
