Payment for this Regional Finale is required to participate in those scrimmages, which are designated as "Free."  But participation in the scrimmages is not required to participate in the Finale.   Participation in the scrimmmages is highly encouraged, but not required,  as it will give your teams a chance to become familiar with the game, with competitions, and improve their robots before this Finale.
