"We will also have a practical session where we invite the audience to be the judge, and be able to vote on referee decisions in real time with a selection races on the big screen."
SCB referee Christina Turnbull, one of the most popular referees on the circuit will also be joining Neil and Nigel to add some of her own experiences and advice to the evening.
