A District is an administrative division of Optimist International within geographical boundaries established by Optimist International.

All Clubs within its boundaries are members of that District.

Districts do not have legislative powers or votes in International affairs.

District meetings include conferences on effective Club administration. Optimist International frequently assigns an official International Representative to these meetings so his/her knowledge of Optimist activities will be available. Most District meetings and conferences are held on Saturdays (occasionally extending into Sunday) and usually include a luncheon or dinner.

District conventions feature the election of a Governor-Elect and a variety of training events. Clubs are represented by delegates (the number based on Club membership) who participate in the election and other District business. Every Club should provide an adequate delegation, equal to its voting strength, including President, President-Elect and Secretary-Treasurer. Conventions provide a high degree of fellowship for delegates.

Many Districts also hold conferences for their Junior Optimist and Octagon Clubs. During these meetings, workshops for Club officers and an election for JOOI District Governor take place.
