Welcome to Upper Deck Entertainment's Demo Team page. This page contains information about our volunteer program and how you can become one of these volunteers!
What is the Demo Team program?
The members of the Upper Deck Entertainment (UDE) Demo Team program are volunteers who love both playing trading card games (TCGs) and teaching other people how to play TCGs. Demo Team volunteers help promote our games at a grassroots level. The Demo Team plays a key role in developing fan support for our games, and each volunteer is essential to the success of our games and of this program.
How do I request a Demo?
Official Upper Deck Entertainment Tournament Organizers (TOs) can request a demo for their hobby store or event using our online Demo requesting tool at
www.ude.com/demorequest. This tool will generate an email to all Demo Team Members within a 50 mile radius of the requester. The email will contain the contact information of the requester as well as the game they wish to have demoed and dates they would like to have the demo take place. If you are interested in becoming an Official Upper Deck Entertainment TO please visit our certifications page at
www.ude.com/op/certprogram.aspx.
How do I become a Demo Team Member?
To become a UDE demo team member, you must be at least 18 years of age and pass the level 1 demo team specialization exam. The exam is available online at
www.ude.com/op/certprogram.aspx. Make sure that you have read the
Demo Team Policy Document and
Demo Team FAQ prior to taking the exam.
What are the benefits of joining the Demo Team program?
As a volunteer, you'll help expand the player base for all UDE games and Organized Play programs. You'll be part of an industry-leading team that helps new players learn the games that you love.
What about the Demo Team leaders?
In recognition of their efforts, Demo Team leaders will receive UDE products and special UDE items. Demo Team leaders will also receive advance information about upcoming products, and they will be the first to receive demo decks and other support materials for brand-new UDE products. As if that wasn't enough, Demo Team leaders will also have the opportunity to volunteer at conventions and other premier events, and in some cases, Demo Team leaders will receive help from UDE for their travel expenses.
