General Info
Welcome to the Level Up Throwdown!
Join us on November 21, 2026, at the TEC Flex Space at Gillette College for a fun, low-pressure VEX IQ Robotics scrimmage featuring the 2026–2027 game, Level Up.
This event is designed to give teams the opportunity to gain match experience, practice strategy, test their robots, and enjoy competing with other VEX IQ teams in a supportive environment.
Teams will participate in Teamwork Challenge matches only.
This scrimmage will not include:
- Robot Skills matches
- Judging or team interviews
- Judged awards
Because this is a scrimmage, the focus is on practice, experience, and having fun rather than qualification.

Emergency/Bad Weather Policy
In the event of severe weather, unsafe travel conditions, or another emergency that affects the Level Up Throwdown, registered teams will be notified as soon as possible of any schedule changes, delays, or cancellation.
Because teams may be traveling from outside the Gillette area, coaches and families should use their own judgment when determining whether travel conditions are safe.
If Gillette College closes due to weather or an emergency, including what is typically a Level II Snow Emergency, the event will not be held as scheduled. We will make every reasonable attempt to reschedule the Level Up Throwdown for another date. If the event cannot be rescheduled, it will be canceled.
Any event updates will be communicated through the contact information provided during registration and, when possible, posted on the event page.
Refund and Payment Policies
If the Event Partner cancels the event: A full refund will be issued.
If the event is postponed or rescheduled: Team registrations will be transferred to the new event date. If a team is unable to attend the rescheduled date, the Event Partner will determine whether a refund can be issued.
If a Coach/Mentor completes registration and later chooses to withdraw or not attend: No refund will be issued.
