Our 2024 competition season is going to look a little different. Due to the many renovations and landscape changes on our current property, we will not be in our normal location. I think this will be an opportunity for some exciting changes. We will have multiple locations throughout the Tyler area depending on the individual contests. Please be aware that the contest locations will be different and that good communication within your district is imperative. Coaches and Sponsors will be informed of changes by email that occur after the Calendar has been set.
A Tentative Schedule can be found in the Groups and Schedules section below. It was posted August 11 and will be updated as further contests are set.
