Florida DI is participating in a Super Southeast Affiliate tournament this
season. This will be a fully virtual tournament.  It will give us the
opportunity to measure ourselves against teams from Virginia, North
Carolina, South Carolina, Arkansas, and Louisiana. Even though all teams
will be scored by a combined affiliate appraisal team, Florida teams will
only compete with other Florida teams for placement and advancement.

 

We invite you to watch our closing ceremonies which will be available on
utube March 28.    Check our Florida DI <https://www.floridadi.org/>
webpage for more information as the date approaches.

 



 

"Vintage" pins are available from us (from 2018) as well as pins from
Virginia, North Carolina, Arkansas, and Louisiana (from 2019).  To check out
