Judge John G. Cummings
Professionalism Award
Beginning in 2012, the St. Clair County Mock Trial Competition sought to recognize participating teams for their level of professionalism that they display during the Mock Trial Competition. The Judge John G. Cummings Professional Award is presented to the team judged most professional by their opposing teams.

Following
each round of the competition, each team completes an evaluation form
which rates the opposing team in the
areas of appearance, proficiency in addressing the judge and jury, compliance with Mock Trial rules, attitude and
persuasion. The form provides a
rubric to effectively assess and award each area a score for that round. Once all the rounds
are completed, the scores are tabulated to determine the winner.
