Rules (and local rules) for State Competitions are set by State Associations.
It has been usual for State Associations in recent times to adopt Nationals Rules, but to make some local rules in regard to things like entry requirements so as to allow less experienced pilots to enter.

Some of the differences are pretty minor, but is there any reason they should not be the same ? Issues: Qld: 20 hrs solo vs NSW: 25 hrs solo. Qld Silver C distance vs NSW Silver C plus one 300km flight. Qld 10 aerotows vs NSW no requirement. Cant see any significant differences between Warwick and Lake Keepit which would justify different requirements for each site. Personally, its the second one which causes me a problem because, although I have done a number of 300km plus flights, total time has not exceeded 5 hours, and I see little point in just hanging around for 5 hours to get a boy scout badge.
