Patterned after the Olympic Games, the Winter Games of Texas is a sports festival created for Texas amateur athletes of all ages and skill levels and provides a wholesome avenue for positive personal enrichment through sports and physical activity.
The Winter Games are sanctioned by the Texas Amateur Athletic Federation (TAAF), a non-profit organization established in 1925 to promote and organize amateur athletics in the State of Texas. The inaugural T.A.A.F. Winter Games was held in 2006.
