UIL Realignment

UIL Announces New Alignment - Read Below

The University Interscholastic League realigned schools throughout the state of Texas this morning in a new UIL Realignment announcement released today.

2008-09 and 2009-10 Tentative Football and Basketball District Assignments and Reclassification Information

The University Interscholastic League announces the 2008-09 and 2009-10 tentative football and basketball district assignments on the enclosed list. The spring meet and other athletic district alignments will be released at a later date.

An organizing school list is also enclosed. It is the responsibility of the organizing school to organize the district and notify the UIL office of the name and the school of the permanent chairman for each sport so that district executive committee mailings are sent to the correct person. Contracts cannot be made until February 22, 2008.

Schools may discuss scheduling possible games beginning on February 1, but cannot actually contract until February 22. Districts with an odd number of schools may meet prior to February 22 to determine "open" dates within the district schedule. These districts cannot set the district schedule, but may draw byes. District Executive Committees may begin contracting games on February 22, 2008.

The Chair of the Legislative Council shall appoint a District Assignment Appeals Committee. A participant school may request an appeal of the district assignment by filing its request and a supporting statement with the District Assignment Appeals Committee and informing, in writing, the superintendent and principal of the schools in the district to which it was assigned and to the district to which it wishes to be assigned. This appeal must be made by February 14, 2008. The meeting at which appeals will be heard is scheduled for February 21, 2008.
