3. Who gets to compete?
Any member in good standing (i.e. you've paid your semiannual membership dues) can compete when the contests come around, except for current District and International officers and candidates for same, except for the International Speech Contest. To compete in the International Speech Contest, you must have delivered at least the first six manual speeches towards your CTM. This requirement is intended to prevent professional speakers from joining Toastmasters solely to compete for the World Championship of Public Speaking. District and International officers are barred so that they will not become distracted from their official obligations and responsibilities.
