A KCBS Contest Representative plays a critical role at a BBQ event. For instance, they are responsible for:

• Visiting and greeting teams
• Supervising and coordinating the numbering & dispensing of presentation containers to contestants
• Conducting Cooks' Meeting
• Conducting Judges' Meeting
• Conduct Table Captains' Meeting
• Supervising the Judging process to ensure rules & regulations are followed
• Supervising the Tabulation process
• Oversight of the required paperwork: Individual scores, reporting to KCBS, contest settlement
• Enforcing all KCBS rules and regulations throughout the contest

In short, Contest Representatives ensure the integrity of your event. They are your mentor, sharing positive contest experiences. They can be your lifeline in mapping a successful event. If there is a scoring problem, rule interpretation dispute, or question about judging, your KCBS Representatives assume responsibility.
