As of the [[2022]] season, [[Kansas]] has only three regions: the [[Northeast Kansas Regional|Northeast]], [[Hays Regional|Hays]], and [[Wichita Regional|Wichita]] Regions. Prior to the 2012 season, there was a fourth region, the [[Salina Regional|Salina Region]], which served central regions of the state, and prior to the 2012 season, there was a fifth region, the [[Garden City Regional|Garden City Region]], which served the western portions of the state. Both regions were disbanded after a host was not able to be found. Each region hosts both a [[Division B]] and [[Division C]] tournament, but they do not always occur simultaneously. The number of bids per region varies with the size of each region, with the top half of each region typically advancing to state. Additionally, regional event winners are invited to compete at the state tournament where they are awarded medals but not included in the final ranking.

Kansas' regions are open, with teams selecting their regions during registration at the beginning of the season. Teams typically select their region based on the proximity of the location.

In the [[2021]] season, an additional [[Kansas Mini SO Regional|mini SO Region]] was added to accommodate teams that were not then able to compete in the [[Satellite SO]] format. Additionally, due to the significantly lowered participation, all regional tournaments were non-qualifying, and any team that participated would automatically advance to state.
