The A&M Consolidated Speech and Academic Teams invite you to our annual UIL invitational meet February 26th and 27th.   

Events.  We will offer all UIL academic and speech events, except CX debate, and the TFA events of Humorous, Dramatic, Oratory and Duet.  LD begins on Friday.  All other events will be held on Saturday. 

Divisions.  For the academic events, the tournament will be divided into a small division (1A, 2A, 3A) and a large school division (4A, 5A).  Number Sense, Calculator Applications, Science, and Mathematics will be divided into 9^th-10^th grade and 11^th-12^th competitions.  The maximum number of points a school can earn in a single event is 37.  The speaking events will NOT be divided.

Judging.  Academic coaches are expected to grade.  Independent judges are hired for Ready Writing and the four Journalism contests.  There is a $10 journalism judging fee for schools entered in journalism events. Hired judges with experience in speech and debate will be used in all the speech events.  There is a $100.00 flat fee for all schools entered in the speech events.  There are no judging obligations or expectations for speech coaches.
