For Iowa USSSA, teams can qualify in one or two possible scenarios:

Fall Qualifying
Direct Berths: will be given to the top 2 teams at every event.
At-Large Berths:  Fall Tournaments will count as ½ credit for At-Large berths. Example: 2 Fall tournaments count as 1 Tournament for season.

Spring/Summer Qualifying
Direct Berth: Teams finishing 1st or 2nd will receive direct berths to the World Series. 3 Berths will be awarded for divisions of 12 or more. Berths will be handed down from already qualified teams to next non-qualified team.
At-Large Berth: 10-14U teams playing in 4 World Series qualifying events in any state will receive an at-large berth to the World Series.
At-Large Berth: 15-18U teams playing in 3 World Series qualifying events in any state will receive an at-large berth to the World Series.

Fall event count applies to season total count starting August 1.
To fulfill any of these berths teams must play in their State Championships, which will count as one of their events played.
Teams will have multiple options to play in a State event and may play in more than 1 State Championship in their State. Teams may only earn State level points in 1 of those events, all other events will be awarded qualifier level points.
