Being UIL could mean travel money for teams whenever they qualify for the "next level". It can mean students can get letter jackets (which while it's something silly in my book might mean something to plenty of students that wouldn't really letter in anything else).

I don't think this will happen at all. It is not like being a UIL recognized event opens up purse strings that weren't open before. I have already been told by my UIL coordinator that there are no, and will not ever be, additional funds for robotics in the UIL budget.

As for letter jackets. My school gets those for my kids now even though we are not UIL. That is a school by school decision.
