General Info
Event Webpage
Please visit the event webpage for more information: https://www.wvrobot.org/events/wvssac-25-26.
Registration
Schools can register directly for this event using the link above before Monday, December 8. As WVSSAC Robotics uses a modified version of the V5RC rules, we will not be using the standard RobotEvents registration system.
Eligibility
Any WVSSAC-affiliated high school may participate. There is no registration fee, and teams do not need to be registered for the 2025-26 V5RC season to participate. Only one team from each school may attend. If your school has been fielding multiple V5RC teams during the RECF season, you can combine all your school's students and robots into a single WVSSAC Robotics team.
Registration Deadline
Registration for the event will close at 11:59 PM on Sunday, December 7, 2025.
Format & Event Notes
WVSSAC Robotics teams will play a modified version of the V5RC High Stakes game with some modifications. Detailed rules are available on this page.
All matches will be played "1 vs. 1", with each team using up to two robots in each match. Although all teams are encouraged to bring at least two robots to the event, teams with a single robot can also participate. Please consult the rules for full details.
The Robot Skills Challenge and judged awards will be offered alongside head-to-head matches.
