General Info

Main fields:  There will be 4 main fields, 2 fields for skills, and 2 practice fields.  The qualification & final matches will be run on the 4 mains fields. 

Skills:    Robot Skills = Driver Skills + Programming Skills.  For this event: each team will be allowed to make a total of 6 skills attempts (which can be any combination of Driver & Programming Attempts).  Once a team has completed a total of 3 attempts of either Driver or Programming skills, and they wish to make additional attempts, they will have to wait behind any teams in the queuing line, who have not yet completed their first 3 attempts of each.  Skills attempts are first come, first served, so there is no guarantee a team who waits will get all their attempts completed in the allotted time.

 

 Trophies:  

Excellence Award (1)

Teamwork Champions (2)

Robot Skills Champion (1)

Design Award (1)

STEM Award (1)
