School-Based Teams: Comprised of full-time students from the same high school, public or private.

Composite Teams: Comprised of full-time students from more than one high school within the same district or geographic area. If a composite team has 5 or more students from two different schools, those students will be scored separately unless a petition is approved.

Home-schooled students may join the closest public high school team corresponding to their neighborhood school. Contact the League Director to confirm which team to join.

Students can also compete as independent racers. While not eligible for the Team Overall title, they are eligible for Individual Race and Overall titles.
