Before anything else, review the official Texas event guidelines. Know the rules, time limits, scoring criteria, and materials you must bring. This prevents last minute surprises and ensures you’re competing correctly.
To be set up for success, start practicing now getting an early start gives you more time to
strengthen your skills and feel confident going into competition.
Double-check all required documents, formats, and deadlines. Upload your work ahead of time, review the rubric, and make sure everything is labeled correctly to avoid last-minute issues.
If you have any questions about competitive events, please reach out directly to our Competitive Events Coordinators, Mrs. Stanhope and Mrs. Herfarth. They are the best sources for accurate and up-to-date information and can be contacted at linda.stanhope@texashosa.org and wanda.herfarth@texashosa.org
Review the dress code for your event to ensure you have the required uniform. Also check the official HOSA guidelines for your HOSA uniforms
