The initiative marks a milestone moment for the sport, elevating the visibility of the athletes, schools, and communities at the heart of Texas high school football.
This year’s playoff run has delivered the kind of drama and statewide excitement that defines Texas high school football. From powerhouse programs reaffirming their dominance to contenders making statement wins deep into December, the road to Arlington has been marked by standout performances. Storylines such as North Shore’s return to the title stage and Frisco Lone Star’s thrilling upset of Aledo, underscore a postseason filled with momentum swings, packed stadiums, and passion across every region of the state
"In Texas, high school football is a ritual that connects generations," said Neil Gruninger, CEO & President of Victory+. "By providing free access to every UIL Championship game, we’re ensuring that every parent, grandparent, and supporter can share in these defining moments. This is about honoring the athletes and giving back to the fans who fuel the sport."
Beyond free access to the championships, Victory+ is deepening its commitment to Texas schools and student-athletes through more than $110,000 in direct financial support during championship week, honoring the character, pride, and spirit that define Texas high school communities.

- The Victory Formation Contest ($100,000 Total Payout): The massive, community-driven "Victory Formation” contest enters its final week. This initiative turns fandom into funding for education.
