This VEX IQ event is a qualifying event to the Oregon VEX IQ State Championships. This season there will be two pathways to qualify for the Oregon VEX IQ State Championships. Teams can qualify by winning a “qualifying award”, which can be found under the Awards Tab. Teams can also qualify by posting a Skills score at an event. Any Oregon VEX IQ team that does not win a qualifying award and has posted a Skills score will be invited to the VEX IQ State Championships on or before 2/19/2018. If your team has any questions on the state qualification process, please contact your Regional Support Manager, Lisa Schultz at (206)482-2472 or [email protected].
