Judge Captains

Our software allows you to assign a "Judge Captain" for each of the categories. This allows for one judge to manage the judging assignments in their specific category. They can make judging assignments in advance of the fair and make adjustments as needed on the day of the fair. This can help to reduce the workload of the admin users by allowing the judge captains to make some of these last minute adjustments.
