What an incredible Friday!
On *September 4, 2026**, the **Chief Judges & Judges Training with a Mock Contest** was conducted at **Al Falak Ballroom, Crowne Plaza, Doha**, bringing together **100+ enthusiastic Toastmasters* who are ready to take on one of the most important responsibilities of the contest season.
A contest is not just about the contestants on stage. Behind every successful and credible contest is a committed team of judges and officials who ensure **fairness, integrity, consistency, and respect for every speaker.*
It was truly wonderful to see so much enthusiasm, interaction, learning, and willingness to serve. The mock contest made the session even more practical and engaging, giving everyone an opportunity to experience the role beyond the theory.
*A heartfelt THANK YOU* to our wonderful trainers, dedicated role players, and every single attendee who contributed to making this training a great success.
Your time, energy, and commitment are what make District 116 stronger. ❤️
And this is just the beginning!
I look forward to seeing you all at the *additional Judges and Chief Judges training sessions**, where we will continue to equip ourselves, sharpen our skills, and prepare to perform these important roles with confidence and excellence.
Let’s make this contest season one that reflects the very best of **District 116!*
