General Info

This will be an early-season blended event that will introduce the teams to Override. We will have full judging and a skills portion at the event as well. Due to being in the early part of the year, the goal of the event will be extra collaboration and learning of the game. For those teams that do not feel quite ready to compete, you are welcome to come help and learn by volunteering, and more than welcome to bring any robot that moves; this is an amazing opportunity to learn!

Judging Format

All In-Person Judging - The Team Interviews and Engineering Notebooks will be judged in person on the day of the event. Teams should bring a physical copy of their notebook to submit to the judges.

Judging will be at team discretion. The judges will have their spot and interview teams as they approach the judges; for an early event, this allowed teams to get interviewed at their pace and not have the extra pressure of being interviewed at random times.
