Hello FTC teams!

Happy New Year!  League meets are starting back up this weekend with Carver, Hadfield and Merian in action.  To see league results, please go to this website.   League tournaments are just around the corner.  Expect to hear more details from your league host sometime this week.

📅  UPCOMING OKLAHOMA EVENTS:

      DECODE COMPETION MATERIALS

👩🏻‍⚖️REQUEST FOR JUDGES
  • Coaches, you can volunteer to judge at another League Tournament event and gain invaluable insight to the judges process.  You will get to see teams from other regions as well!  Make time now!
  • 1/31/2026 - Mustang League Tournament volunteer link
  • 2/7/2026 - Kingfisher League Tournament volunteer link
  • 2/7/2026 - Bishop Kelley League Tournament volunteer link

❄️INCLEMENT WEATHER POLICY
  • Events for our region are booked and scheduled in advance. Event managers have the authority to cancel an event if their facility determines conditions to be unsafe. This policy would apply to inclement weather or any other public safety issue including a lack of screened volunteers. Meets can be rescheduled at the League Manager’s discretion.
  • It is highly unlikely that League Tournaments will be rescheduled. If a League Tournament  is cancelled, judging will take place remotely. We will work with the coaches to schedule remote judging sessions. Judged awards will be based on judging sessions and team ranking will be determined from Meet scores.

👩🏻‍💻DEAN’S LIST INTERVIEWERS
  • Do you have a former team member who would be interested in serving on the judging team for this year’s Dean List selections?  We are looking for former team standouts over the age of 21 to help on the panel with virtual interviews in January.
  • Please encourage those former students to apply.  link for intervewers
