You will be in violation of UIL Rules if you have more than 12 7th and 8th grade players or have more than one team per the following:

(A) In Conference 1A and 2A schools or in small junior high schools whose enrollment corresponds to Conference 1A and 2Aenrollment, sixth graders may be used when their participation is vital to field one combined seventh and eighth grade baseball,basketball, football, soccer, softball or volleyball team on the first day of the season. Sixth graders may not be used on either team when aschool has more than one team playing. (Exception: Pilot program for the 2023-24 and 2024-2025 school year: 1A and 2A schools areallowed to use sixth graders to field as many as two (2) teams under this rule. Also, once a school qualifies to use sixth graders underthis rule, it would qualify to use sixth graders for any activities that follow on the calendar.) The first day of the season is defined as thefirst day of practice outside the school day or the day of the first competition, whichever occurs sooner. If fewer than the below listednumber of seventh and eighth grade students report the first day of the season, then sixth graders shall be notified the next day that theymay try out for the combined seventh and eighth grade team and may participate for the entire season. If the number of seventh andeighth graders reporting the first day of the season meets or exceeds the number listed below, then sixth graders shall not be usedanytime during the entire season.
Baseball - 18
Basketball - 10
Football: 6-man - 12Football:
11-man - 22
Soccer - 22
Softball - 18
Volleyball - 12

If a coach intentionally prevents seventh or eighth graders from reporting at the beginning of the season (so as to permitsixth graders to participate) it will be considered a violation of the Athletic Codes and subject to penalty.(B) Individual Sports. Sixth graders shall not represent a UIL seventh and eighth school in individual sports (crosscountry, golf, swimming, tennis, track and field and wrestling), except students with disabilities who meet thecriteria of the provisions of Section 1478 (c) (2).(C) Schools must provide evidence of compliance with the rule above to the DEC to utilize sixth graders.
