Pathway to ILC:

  • If the event you are competing in includes an "R", you must start at the Regional Conference to qualify for SLC.

  • If the event has only an S/I, you must qualify for SLC via Online Testing (with the exception of Recognition Events).

  • Top 7 at each Regional Conference qualify for SLC, and top scores (number is variable by event) on online testing in those events qualify for SLC.

  • Top Three in each event at SLC will advance to the International Leadership Conference!

  • Recognition Events have no qualifier in order to attend SLC.  Just follow the guidelines to determine whether/how you would be able to receive recognition at the SLC.

KEY:

S - Event available in Arizona at State Level
I - Event available to Arizona at International Level
