A Florida county may enter six teams or a maximum of 24 participants in the Consumer Choices event, six teams and unlimited individuals in the Agricultural Judging event, and four teams in the Horticultural Judging event. Three or four members comprise a team unless stated otherwise. There will be no intermixing of age divisions on teams. Team members for all judging events must be from the same county. Counties will also be allowed to enter individual participants as well as teams. Individuals will be eligible to compete for individual awards.

Teams who do not pre-register by the deadline may participate but will not be eligible for awards or premium money.
