Academic Invitational Meets and Tournaments
Rather than going to the district meet without any formal experience in a contest, most high school students attend invitational or practice meets in their local area. While the UIL does not govern such meets, most host schools abide by UIL rules.
For schools that host an Invitational Meet, UIL prepares two sets of high school tests (Set A and Set B) that may be purchased for use during dates listed on the UIL calendar. Schools planning to host meets on dates other than these will need to order tests from other sources. Invitational materials are not for individual use or to be used solely as study materials. They will only be sold to schools hosting invitational meets.
- Hosting HS Invitational Meet During a Pandemic Information
- Submit your high school invitational meet information
- Submit your A+ (grades 2-8) invitational meet information
- Purchase Invitational Meet Material (Set A and Set B)
If you need to make a correction on a previously submitted invitational meet, email changes to UIL Academics at .(JavaScript must be enabled to view this email address).
