Regional Competition
Oklahoma calls chapter competition as regionals. There are five distinct regions. Each region competes on a certain date.
- Central: first weekend of February or last weekend of January
- East central: one week after central
- Eastern: two weeks after central
- Northwestern: three weeks after central
- Southwestern: four weeks after central
The most competitive of these five regions are the ones with Oklahoma's two major metropolis: east central (Tulsa) and central (Oklahoma City/Norman).
The selection process for advancing towards state competition is the same as all states. Countdown round is not used to determine state qualification.
