Out of this list of 30 states 20 (66%) states do not offer a 6 & under state. The other 10 states that do offer a 6 & under state tournament - for the most part they are an open tournament - anyone can sign up there is no qualifying series. If you add Kansas in that is 21 out of 31. I need to look up New Jersey, Ohio and a few other states still.
