The Oklahoma Trucking Association and Oklahoma Safety & Security Council host the state Truck Driving Championships. This two-day event puts each contestant through their paces with the challenges of a written exam, pre-trip inspection, and a skills course. After the competition is over we celebrate the accomplishments of these safe drivers at our awards banquet. Winners of each class go on to compete in the ATA National Truck Driving Championship.
We will be at a new location for the driving course portion this year.

3. Company Rep Checklist (Use this as a guide to ensure you're turning in completed driver packets)
Company Reps and family members are not allowed in Driver Bullpen at any time during the competition, this may disqualify your driver from the competition.
Tent Info: If you have a company tent on the course, it MUST be picked up by the end of the day Saturday and cannot be left on-site through the weekend. All sites are first come, first serve, if you're planning to stake a tent you MUST call/contact Okie prior, to ensure no lines may be struck.
2024 NTDC Competition Date: August 21-24 - Indianapolis, IN - Like last year, you will not receive NTDC packets for your champions. Once your champions are registered with the ATA they will receive an email containing all information that was previously included in the packet. - The OTA will register your drivers for the NTDC with ATA, and we will send a separate invoice for their entry after our state TDC. The ATA will reach out to company reps after your drivers are registered by us.
