Active listening & note-taking: Watch each team’s 3–5 minute pitch attentively and jot down key strengths and areas for improvement regarding their Choi Hung Estate renovation concept.. Facilitating constructive Q&A: Ask 1–2 encouraging, thought-provoking questions per team to help students think critically about feasibility, community impact, and user needs.. Delivering encouraging feedback: Share brief, supportive verbal feedback after pitches—highlighting what each team did well to create "proud moments" while offering practical tips to refine their ideas for the final round.. Scoring & deliberation: Complete the evaluation rubric fairly based on criteria such as creativity, community relevance, and presentation clarity, and join a quick wrap-up discussion with fellow judges to shortlist advancing teams.

Remarks
- JC Youth Upward Mobility Project (JC YUP!) is a multi-year initiative created and funded by The Hong Kong Jockey Club Charities Trust. Designed specifically for students from under-resourced secondary schools, the project aims to break down systemic barriers to upward mobility and empower young people to take charge of their futures.Through hands-on experiences, real-world challenges, and direct mentorship, JC YUP! creates meaningful "proud moments" that build students' confidence and broaden their imagination regarding future career pathways. Rather than limiting youth to traditional expectations, the initiative encourages them to explore diverse industries, develop practical problem-solving skills, and discover their own potential.At the same time, JC YUP! bridges the gap between classrooms and the working world. By connecting students directly with professionals and industry partners, the project allows corporate employers to gain firsthand insight into the fresh perspectives, creativity, and hidden strengths of Hong Kong’s future workforce. Ultimately, JC YUP! fosters a supportive ecosystem where young people are seen, heard, and equipped to thrive. Pre-event briefing
