Lesson learned
Start early enough with organization
Find some good experienced supporters
People will subscribe in the last week
Teams should be balanced
If you provide foods, take dietary needs into
account
Give enough time to the jury
The jammers work very hard
Need some rest after
It’s really fun and exiciting
What’s next
We’re doing it again!
