I’m interested in volunteering – What do volunteers do?
Thank you for your interest! It is important to encourage students to enjoy math and science. Please contact your regional coordinator and/or the national coordinator to get more information. Volunteers are needed to be competition officials and assist with the information desk and other logistics. More information on volunteers can be found on our website. There are 5 officials for every competition room and several runners who bring the scoresheets to Science Bowl Central. Officials are: Moderator (reads questions), Scientific Judge (operates buzzer system, judges answers), Rules Judge (watches audience and team, guards scrap paper), Timekeeper (keep time for round and time for answers), and Scorekeeper (writes score on scoreboard).
