General Info
This will be low stakes scrimmage, but we will run it as close as possible to a real tourney, but without the Alliance selection at the end. It will run very similar to last year's Santa Robot Clash.
Most teams in the past have opted to eat at our canteen on campus. If so, you can let us know the number of students and ISB can bill you per person?
We'll give trophies for.........
2 vs 2 Match Record (1st and 2nd)
Robot Skills (1st and 2nd)
Design Award (1st and 2nd)
Most Holiday Festive Robot / Team (1st and 2nd)
We will NOT award an excellence award, and we will NOT do the alliance selection elimination matches.
