NOTE: Due to the popularity of the competition, schools are encouraged to limit their participation to one team per school for oral argument—See Rule 4.  If a school enters more than one team, the regional director will make every effort to accommodate the additional team, but it may not be possible to do so or a regional director may not know whether it will be possible until shortly before oral arguments are scheduled to begin.  Should you have any questions regarding the structure of the competition, please contact your regional director.
