General Info

As in years past, we will run this as close as possible to a traditional tourney, but without the Alliance selection at the end. It will run very similar to last year's Santa Robot Clash. 

Teams will be fed by our campus canteen. You'll soon be given a list for all your participants (students and adults). Then after the event, you'll receive an invoice with a cost of food based on number of people. 

We'll give trophies for.........

2 vs 2 Match Record 

Robot Skills 

Design Award 

Most Holiday Festive Robot / Team

We will NOT award an excellence award, and we will NOT do the alliance selection elimination matches. 

The team interviews and notebook judging will take place remotely, and must be done in advance of the tournament date.

Skills Challenge Offered: Yes
