I only once had a bad judge and she was just plain rude insisted on calling me steward all day instead of my name - she was not invited to judge again SWPA thinks stewards are as important as judges - can't run the show without either Was a he! Not seen him since, but was a bit of a bully - made one little girl cry because she was on the wrong leg. I told him I was a total novice ponywise as well as stewardwise, but was willing to learn if he showed me everything once, I would pick it up. Unfortunatly he found it amusing to keep barking orders and pointing out how I really didn't know what I was doing! Was my first show as a spectator and didn't want to make a fuss, but don't think I would be so polite now! I have to say though, I have met some lovely judges since, one in particular I spent all afternoon with and in the dressage classes she talked me through every move the ponies made and explained why she was giving the points she did. If I see her at SWPA I never mind volunteering for her classes!!!
