Team Registration

4 Important Considerations

Please Note:  Only coaches should have access to their team's SpeechWire account.

Consideration 1

Register Here

Consideration 2

Pay Invoice

Consideration 3

Process and Provide Payment ASAP

To be eligible to compete at OSDA sanctioned tournaments, a team must be both registered with the OSDA and receipt of payment must be confirmed by the OSDA.

In order to avoid last minute tournament eligibility issues, we strongly recommend processing payment sooner rather than later.

If your team is requesting a Fee Waiver, please ensure that request is submitted ASAP, so your team's eligibility can be resolved prior to tournaments.

Consideration 4

Send Requests with Administrative Documentation to:

OSDA Board Chair:
Nicole Fryfogle (nfryfogle@theosda.org)

2. Requests for permission to combine students from two or more schools in the same non-public or public school system must be submitted annually to the OSDA in writing by the superintendent, or administrative equivalent, of the non-public or public school system.
