General Info

GA TSA Fall Leadership VEX VRC Robotics Tournament Information:

 

As in year’s past, Georgia TSA will have a VEX VRC robotics qualification tournament at Fall Leadership on Friday.  Registration for this event will be a little different this year, so please make sure you read the details below.

 

1.   Make sure you have registered your team number through robotevents.com for the 24-25 season.  We will be using RobotEvents this year for primary registration and you will not be able to register for the tournament until your team is registered.  Directions for how to register a team for the season can be found here.  Please note RECF now requires all primary and secondary contacts to complete a background check.  If you had one in the RECF system that is more than two years old, or if you never did one with RECF, you'll be prompted to go through that process before you can renew/register your team for the 24-25 VEX season. Make sure you provide yourself enough time to have this cleared in order to make the FLC registration deadline (step 3 on the directions will tell you how to do this).

2.    If you plan to compete, you can register ONE TEAM per chapter for the GATSA Fall Leadership VRC Robotics Tournament by adding yourself to the waitlist in RobotEvents (filter for events in Georgia at THIS LINK and it will be near the top of the list).  Once registration has closed for Georgia TSA, we will verify that schools are registered for the TSA Fall Leadership Conference and then add the teams to the event.

3.    Judging – To help with judging, we will be doing an early design notebook submission with interviews onsite.  You will upload the notebook to robotevents.com following the directions at this link.

4. In addition to registering in Robot events you are required to include the team in the EMS Registration process for Fall Leadership.  You are reminded that both Robot Events wait list and EMS registration for your team must be done for the same team.  NO SUBSTITUTIONS!.
