Needless to say, the New York State Mock Trial tournament depends on the hard work of the County Coordinators, and the NYSBA and LYC are grateful for their continued effort each year. Nearly all the County Coordinators do even more, such as providing food and drink for teams, helping to arrange for transportation if needed, and holding awards ceremonies for teams at the end of the season. County Coordinators are responsible for fielding teams from the schools in their county, distributing materials to their teams, providing attorney mentors to teams in need, arranging the local tournament schedule, securing tournament space and judges, resolving any conflicts, and collecting all relevant CLE information. The County Coordinators of the Mock Trial program are the primary reason the Mock Trial program in New York State is so successful. 2022 – May 22-24 | Virtual OR Hilton Albany (if in-person).Congratulations and thank you all.įuture Dates for NYS Mock Trial State Finals Thank you to everyone who was a part of making the virtual tournament a success.
