General Info

Pine Belt Robotics Academy and Enrichment Center is proud to host this tournament on January 22, 2022 in our Facility which is located inside Anatomies Fitness Center. We are located in Suite C - upstairs. Teams are encouraged to use the stairs if at all possible; however, an elevator is available for those needing assistance. This competition is open to all registered VIQC teams.  

Your payments must be shown in the system as paid by Jan. 14, 2022 in order to participate in the competition.  Please add your team to the waiting list if the competition has filled.  If any spots become available I will contact you.

This will be a small event and social distancing practices will be exercised to include limiting spectators to 2 per team. Also, unless otherwise noted MASKS WILL BE REQUIRED FOR ALL PARTICIPANTS, SPECTATORS, AND VOLUNTEERS.  

We plan to offer a preorder lunch for the teams, probably pizza.  Light concessions will be availble. More details will be sent closer to the event. Please contact me if you have any questions.

Best of luck to all the teams competing in PITCHING IN!
