Entries will be judged by an evaluation committee of the IGS Young Members International Board. Consideration will be given to the following qualities:
- Aesthetics
- Creativity
- Originality
- Fitting display of “IGS” lettering
- Evokes the theme of youth / young members
In the unlikely event that no submission is found to be superior to the current logo, the committee will retain the current logo. First place and runner up contestants will still be judged and awarded.
