The Texas Shootout

Providing contests, practice material, and tests for UIL academic events since 1989.

Going Out of Business

We're going out business. There will be no contest this year.

Look at the order forms from our placing orders page for special offers on all our materials.

SALE! We're going out of business and might make a little money as we go. BUT, what we're offering is a great deal for you, to stock your "UIL pantry" with all our materials at a ridiculous savings to you. As a former UIL director and coach in a couple of schools, I know your hard work, little recognition, and small budgets. So, this is my final gift to you. This offer isn't limited to a few schools, but is open to all. Don't leave these materials in my hands. Put them in yours! Click on "Placing Orders" and then the HS or JH/Elem. order form for details. (There will be no Shootout contest this year).

What We Do

The Texas Shootout offers contests, practice material, and tests for UIL academic programs.
Our online contests can be a source of motivation and tests for off-season practice. They allow students the unique opportunity to compete against other students across the state without the cost (in both time and money) associated with normal weekend UIL events.
Our practice material can be used to sharpen student's skills and get them ready for competition.
Tests are a required element of practice. We have a large number of tests for many different UIL events available for purchase.
We also offer material to prepare your students for TAKS Math.
