TAAF Region 7 acts as a vital administrative division of the Texas Amateur Athletic Federation, specifically serving the suburban municipalities surrounding the Dallas metropolitan area, including counties such as Collin, Hunt, and Rockwall. The organization is comprised of numerous member cities like Frisco, Plano, Garland, and McKinney, but notably excludes the City of Dallas itself, which functions as its own independent region. Region 7 coordinates a wide variety of amateur athletic competitions for both youth and adults, with particularly strong participation in summer track and field meets and regional swim qualifiers. Top-performing athletes and teams from these regional events earn the opportunity to advance and compete against other regional qualifiers at the annual Games of Texas, the state's largest multi-sport festival.
