How does a league determine state-level Desjardins winners?
Each league may use the scoring system described above or develop its own system for state-level judging. Consult your league for details. Winners are ranked using a point system, and the first place winners are selected to advance to CUNA for national level competition. (Reminder: Only one first-place chapter winner and only one first-place credit union winner per asset category can advance to the national competition from any given state.) If there are multiple first-place awards in a given category at the state level, the league must apply a tie-breaker, so that only a single entry advances for that chapter or credit union asset category.
