An Engineering/Design Notebook is required for a team to be eligible for the Excellence Award and the Design Award. If 10 or more teams are registered at each the Elementary and Middle School levels, an Excellence Award will be earned by a team at each level. 

The Fox Valley VEX IQ League is hosted by Fox Valley Competitive Robotics. Visit our webpage for more information: http://fvcrinc.wixsite.com/fox-valley-robotics

State Qualifying Spot Assignments for Wisconsin VEX IQ Events:

Teams All VEX IQ events
<=31           6
32-39               7
 40+          8

 

If 10 or more teams are registered at each level of a Blended event (Elementary School and Middle School) the Excellence Award must be offered at each level. The total number of state qualifying spots will increase by one.  

If the STEM Research Award is not offered at the event, the total number of qualifying spots remains the same as the table above. 

State Qualifying Spots are initially assigned based on the capacity of the event. After registration closes, and before the event, spots may be adjusted to reflect the number of teams registered for the event according to the table above. Qualifying Spots are assigned by the REC Foundation. The assignments are calculated based on the number of spots available for State Championship, the number and size of qualifying events in the State, and the historical double-qualification rates for the State. Questions on State Qualifying spot assignments may be directed to your REC Foundation Regional Support Manager Bill Ryno by email at: [email protected].
