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.

These events are held during the TFA State Consolation Rounds.

Points are awarded based on the number of entries in the tournament.

The awards are given based on an equally weighted consideration of achievements, financial need, and academics.
