Legal Question in Business Law in Texas

Non-compete

I worked part-time at the AT&T Center sports arena in San Antonio. I left my position in July 2006. I recently tried to go to work for another company in the arena and was told that I could not work there for a year. My question is whether part-time employees in an arena where nothing is confidential about the job, and all postions are different can be held to a non-compete agreement. They have allowed 6 other employees from this company to go to worker for other employees. They since I was a key member of their staff it would be embarrassing for them to allow me to do the same. Is this something I would need to hire a lawyer to fight?
