2027 TN Elementary VEX IQ Robotics State Championship

معلومات عامة

There is a mandatory online coaches meeting March 8, 2027 at 7PM (CST). Please make plans to have at least one adult in attendance. Details of this meeting will be sent out that day. If you absolutely cannot make it, please read this website and review all emails I send you. It is important that you begin looking for emails from me after February 9, 2027. Please check your junk, clutter or spam files for these. So, please ensure your contacts are accurate in your events.vex.com account.

By thoroughly reviewing emails and this website, you will get an idea of how the event will be ran. We often enter an event with how we would do it or how we think it will go. However, it is important that you, your students and your parents know what is going on so please read and review everything. Much of the information on this site is accurate, but it will not be finalized until March 1, 2027. 

The middle school and elementary school competitions will be running at the same time. The elementary event will be held in the auditorium (pits in the cafeteria) and the middle school event will be in the gym (pits in the gym). These areas are in very close proximity to one another, so it will not be a problem to watch both events if you have teams in each grade level. 

Camping chairs are not allowed in the gym or auditorium. Bring bleacher chairs for the gym. 

We will have badges for coaches, participants and volunteers. "No parent" and "No coach" zones will be strictly enforced.

FIELDS 

We will have an area set aside for practice fields. Please contact me if you would like to bring one. If you bring a field into the building, you are required to share it in the designated area. We will have a practice field coordinator. It may be necessary for this individual to cycle teams through ten minute intervals to practice if a line forms. This is how things are done at worlds and will give everyone equal access to the practice fields.

JUDGING

The judging schedule will be emailed the week of the event if not sooner so remember to bring your notebooks and turn them in at the check-in table. No digital notebooks, please. They must be printed.
