General Info

Welcome to East End's VEXpert YellowJacket Games!  We are excited about hosting this event and can't wait to see all the robots from across Arkansas!

The tournament will be held at East End Middle School in the Gym/Cafeteria.  There will be a total of three fields available.  Two competition fields and one field dedicated for SKILLS.  Bringing additional fields for practice is encouraged.  There will be a designated area to set those extra fields up.  They may NOT be setup directly beside your pit area.  Fields will be raised approximately 22 inches off the ground for teamwork.  The dedicated SKILLS field will be ground level.

We are only accepting digital notebooks submissions at the tournament.  Please have those prepared and uploaded to Robotevents TWO days prior to the event to allow time to process the links and ensure all journals are ready for judging.

We will have a concession with a limited selection of drinks and snacks.  Details will be provided at a further time.
