NYSFL Half Quals Chart
Here is the chart of the number of particpants it takes to qualify speakers to the NYSFL Championship.
There must be at least 3 schools and six speakers in a category in order to have a half qual available.
3-9 speakers = 1 half qual
10-13 speakers = 2 half quals
14-17 speakers = 3
18-27 = 4
28-37 = 5
38-47 = 6
48-57 = 7
58-67 = 8
68-77 = 9
78-87 = 10
88-97 = 11
98-107 = 12
108-117 = 13
and so on………for every 10 speakers add one half qual. So a contest of 200 speakers equals 22 half quals for Albany!
