Here you can find a profile of all our coaches and judges with photos so you can put a faces to names, if you don't know us already! As I am sure many of you are aware, to be able to compete at a competition each club has to supply a number of judges. They provide an invaluable help and we would like to thank all of our judges for their ongoing support!
