What are the down sides of being a competitor chaperone?

You will be the first one usually that a competitor may ‘stress to’ should such a situation arise. It is important that you do not take the comments literally and personally and always have a supportive, positive and encouraging manner no matter how stressful the situation may appear at that time.

 

Quite often your duties require you to be back stage during the completion as your competitor may wish to have you back stage with them for moral support, which may mean you either miss the show or have very limited viewing.
