The University Interscholastic League or UIL is an
organization which creates rules for and sometimes administers almost all
athletic, music, and academic contests for public elementary and
secondary schools in the state of Texas.
Purpose
The UIL was originally created by the University of Texas
at Austin
to provide a rule-making body for athletic and academic events. It has
since grown to many times its original size and vision, and now strives
to create rules for fair play in all inter-school contests. It's mission, according to the UIL, is to foster good
sportsmanship and character building among competitors.
