Regions of Missouri

Missouri has historically been divided into 8 regions, serving the state's 114 counties (and one independent city). Each region holds both a Division B and Division C tournament, which typically occur at the same time. However, certain regions may hold separate tournaments for each division. These tournaments are closed, and teams must attend the tournament for the region that they are located in. If a team competes well enough at the tournament for their region, then it will advance to the state tournament.
