POWER IS ON.

Eastern PA States will be held on Sunday, March 4th and will follow the same agenda.

 

Welcome to the Eastern PA State Championship - VEX IQ Ringmaster

PA VEX IQ teams must qualify from events in Pennsylvania to register for this event.

Additional spots will be given to PA VEX IQ teams from the World Skills Standings to fill remaining capacity on February 18, 2018. If there are 5 spots still open, then the top 5 unqualified PA VEX IQ teams will become qualified from their Robot Skills scores, tracked on the World Skills Standings in Robot Events. Teams will have their Robot Skills scores added to the World Skills Standings by attending any official 2017-18 VEX IQ event, even if it is an out-of-state event, including skills only events that are out-of-state. 

Any double qualified teams for VEX Worlds will be filled from the world skills standings and given to the highest score by a PA team on March 4.  Qualification cannot be transferred to other teams, even if the team choses not to attend Worlds.
