The Raw Recruit Trophy is awarded at the National Final, to the best first-time entrant in Raw. We usually buy a second hand sporting figurine and rebadge it.
What are we looking for?
The judges are invited by the local presenter putting on the gig. They are drawn from industry, performers, media, and other local identities.
There is no formal, structured way of 'marking' or 'scoring'. Judges are instructed to identify performers with potential for creative achievement.
Some of the things they look out for are quality and originality of material, performance skills and audience response.
