Contest Directors will submit all results to the regional sites via the online Spring Meet Entry System. Make certain that results are open for public review. It is not necessary to fax results to the Regional Meet or the State UIL Office. The District Meet Results online entry will serve as the official entry form for academic events registration.

District results must be certified online by the Regional Director no later than 5:00p on the Monday following the final district academic week. Failure to meet the deadline disqualified the district teams from advancing as wild cards.

SUBSTITUTIONS All substitutions will be submitted on the Substitute Eligibility Form found in the Spring Meet Manual. Fax this form to 936.468.1471 or deliver in person to the Contest Director before roll call the day of the contest.

WITHDRAWAL / LATE ARRIVAL / ABSENTEEISM The school of a district winner who cannot attend the Regional Meet must notify the District Director. The District Director will subsequently notify the alternate and the Regional Director.

Information packets will NOT be mailed to schools or handed out during the regional meet verification meetings or awards ceremonies, except for LD coaches’ packet’s for advancing LD debaters. Coaches and contestants must go to the UIL website for a tentative schedule, UT parking, UT campus map and other vital State Meet information.

Responsibility for knowing times, dates, and sites of State Meet events rests solely with coaches and contestants. Second place regional teams should also look for the list of wild card qualifiers.

First, second, third, fourth, fifth, and sixth-place medals will be awarded in all individual events, except LD debate and OAP. Medals will also be awarded to the first and second-place team members in team events. The winning team’s school will also receive a plaque in each of the team / group events.

The school with the highest total points for all academic events will be named the REGIONAL ACADEMIC CHAMPION and will be awarded a regional academic champion trophy. The Academic Champion will be posted on the website on the following Wednesday after the meet.

Two unranked One-Act Plays receive plaques and advance to state.

Students, coaches, and / or other school officials are urged to attend all verification periods.

REGISTRATION On the day of the Regional Contest there will be NO registration headquarters. Coaches and sponsors are expected to have students report to locations at the times listed in the Regional Meet Handbook for their individual or team event. Each Contest Director will have a list of those eligible for that event and will call roll at the starting time of the event.
