The Texas Forensic Association (TFA) is an organization that provides and regulates competition in speech and debate (forensics) for Texas high school students. The association authorizes forensics competitions nearly every weekend in Texas for the duration of the forensics season, which lasts from early August until the end of February, with the State competition typically in the first or second week of March.
Goals
[edit]The Texas Forensic Association states that its goals are:
- to foster cooperation between the worlds of speech and theatre
- to show the importance of speech and theatre education to the public
- to create a forum to collaborate and solve common problems in the speech and theatre fields
- to forward the standards of the speech and theatre activities
- to promote cooperation and friendship among students and teachers in the organization[1]
Regions
[edit]TFA divides Texas into five regions for administrative purposes; there are no regional championship tournaments or limit on number of schools or students to qualify to the state tournament from each region. The regions are divided by area code, and there is a region representative from each region to coordinate the region's activities with the state association.
