IF YOU ARE NOT CHECKED IN BY 8:45 YOU WILL BE LEFT OFF THE MATCH LIST.  IF YOU ARE RUNNING BEHIND CALL ME AT 561 463 8641.

9:00 Opening remarks, driver meeting - Robot skills will run until the qualification matches are over.  Get your rounds in early!

Matches will run tight.  I will have the Emcee start the matches about 10-15 seconds after the last one ends.  The matches will run without you!

This is all followed by awards!

I will try and get you all out of there by 3:00pm, but it could run as late as 5.

Judging Format

Notebooks need to be turned in electronically.  Please note the judge's guide. 

The notebooks must be uploaded on November 26th by 11:59pm.  We will try to reach out to teams if the notebook links do not work.  The reason is that we don't like to affect students because the coach didn't turn it in.  Please keep in mind that the notebooks may be judged at any point in that 10-day window.

Initial interviews will be scheduled before the tournament.
