Sample Scorecards
The Scorecards used at ULSC this year (2026) may differ slightly from the Scorecards in 2022, due to logistics, available equipment, etc. but we strive to align our State Contests as closely as possible to the National Contests.
How to access technical standards

These are the official rules and regulations for each competition, and they are included as a benefit of membership.
