Speak at the Creek TFA at Cypress Ranch

2026 — Cypress, TX/US

Drop Deadlines

Entries will be accepted through Monday, November 9th at 5:00 PM.

ALL FEES WILL LOCK ON Monday, November 9th at 5:00 PM.

The deadline to enter a judge will also be November 9th at 5:00 PM, after this point you will be charged a judge fee.

This will be strictly enforced, after this date all drops will forfeit entry fees.

Given that we will have to wait until we receive school checks to pay judges, it is important that we have an accurate estimate of judge need.

Any drop after November 9th at 5:00 PM will be charged the entry fee and may incur a penalty to help mitigate the fact that judging had already been hired for those entries. This is a necessary evil because at this point as we will have already hired judges to cover those entries.
