1. Check the official VEX forums for rule updates and changes.

2. Carefully read all of the information contained on this page.

   • Batteries and chargers

   • Programming cable

   • Power strip

   • Laptop computer

   • Engineering notebook (if you have one, helpful for Judges, Design and Excellence Awards)

6. Prep for your interviews with the judges. Check the Awards tab to see what awards will be given during the tournament.

7. Remember that safety comes first—please don’t bring tools that pose a safety risk to your team or others nearby, as the venue is a very tight fit. Also remember: no grinding or other actions that create sparks.

8. Read through the game manual!! (Click: V5RC 26-27 “overide”...)
