Thank You to Our 2026 Mock Trial Competition Volunteers

T HANK YOU TO ALL MOCK TRIAL VOLUNTEERS! Without the hard work of hundreds of volunteers across the state, the Oklahoma High School Mock Trial program would not exist. Each year, more than 100 judges and attorneys donate time to work with mock trial teams, score and judge the teams throughout the competition and plan, prepare, write, conduct and oversee the competition. The Oklahoma Bar Foundation is the principal financial supporter of this competition, and without its generosity, the generational impact this program has developed since its inception simply would not exist. If you are interested in being a part of the committee or volunteering for the Oklahoma High School Mock Trial program next year, email Mock Trial Coordinator Michael Horn at michaelh@okbar.org.
