Help the Next Generation of Law Students

Give back to your community and inspire a future generation of legal professionals by volunteering for the upcoming YMCA Mock Trial Middle School Tournament.  This tournament requires volunteer raters to score and provide feedback to the students as they portray attorneys and witnesses, and law students are invited to volunteer. 

The tournament is Friday, January 26th and Saturday, January 27th  and takes place at the Denny Juvenile Justice Center (2801 10th St, Everett, WA 98201) with round times as follows:

Sign up HERE.

Round 1: Friday (1/26) @ 5pm

Round 2: Saturday (1/27) @ 9am

Round 3: Saturday (1/27) @ 11:30am

Round 4: Saturday (1/27) @ 2pm

Please sign up for a round (or two!) and get some volunteer hours, meet other folks working with youth interested in the law, and become a part of the Mock Trial community! Washington State YMCA Mock Trial has over 70 teams (including Middle Schools!) registered for this season, meaning the program has grown by more than 20% over last year! We need as many folks as possible to be involved in tournaments and to help spread the word. Feel free to forward this sign-up link to friends and colleagues that may be available and interested*. Thank you for your time and expertise.

*Note for Middle School tournament: This opportunity is for lawyers, judges, paralegals, AND law students.
