General Info

We will look forward to you attending the 7th VIQC Regional in County Durham.

We hope to make this bigger and better than previous ones, open to all VEX IQ Teams, both Elementery (Years 4-6) and Middle School (Years 7-9), you will need to check birthday rules too.

We have decided to run this on a Sunday due to positive comments from team mentors last year and the increased issues of teachers being allowed out of school. Thank you to Park View School for providing the venue for free, again.

 

As it's a Sunday, there are plenty of car parking spaces. Should any teams want to bring their kit the afternoon before, this can be arranged, please just get in touch.

Please bring refreshments and packed lunch for the day. However, we hope to have some sixthform students providing drinks and bits for a donation, to help their fund raising for World Challenge. 

If you have any questions, please contact me directly 07775601711

I'm looking forward to this years Full Volume Competition :)
