Odyssey of the Mind is a creative problem-solving competition for students of all ages from 3rd grade to 12th grade. Teams of students select a problem, create their own unique solution, then present it as a team in the form of an eight-minute skit.

The Texas Association organizes tournaments for our teams at the Regional and State level. Advancing teams participate at the World Finals every year.

 
 

Proud Sponsor of Odyssey of the Mind for 2026

How?

* Students work in teams of up to seven members under the guidance of an adult coach.

* Teams spend several months, at their own pace, creating their unique solution to a selected long-term problem. This includes Style enhancements.

* Team members come up with all the ideas for their solution and do all the work themselves.

* Teams have 8 minutes to present their long-term solution at competition in the form of a skit.
