Law Enforcement Challenge
2007 Law Enforcement Challenge Categories
In an effort to more evenly distribute agencies across categories at the national level, new divisions have been established for the 2007 National Challenge for the Municipal Agencies and Sheriff's Offices Categories. Not only will this help the judges by better balancing the number of entries in each category that they have to compare, but it should also even out the competition for the agencies.
(Categories for State Police/Highway Patrol and other law enforcement agencies are unchanged.)
The categories for the 2007 Challenge are as follows:
