基本訊息

Concessions: Will have concession avaible by the gym. 

Team Attendance: No restrictions at this time

Spectator Attendance: No restrictions at this time.

Keep in Mind:  Please check back regularly for any updates or cancellations. 

Competition Preparation:

  1. Review the rules and run through the inspection checklist about a week before the competition so that there is ample time for adjustments. Please self inspect before arriving at the tournament using the VEX V5 Inspection
  2. Check the official VEX forums at events.vex.com for rule updates and changes.
  3. Carefully read all of the information contained in the tournament posting on VEX Events
  4. Pack for the event the day before the day of departure. Here are a few items that you don't want to forget.
    1. Goggles/Safety Glasses
    2. Spare parts & tools
    3. Batteries and chargers
    4. Programming cable
    5. Power strip
    6. Laptop computer
    7. Engineering notebook (if you have one, no judging at this event but the notebook can be used to enhance feedback)
    8. Banners and other decorations for your team pit
    9. Giveaways if you have them
  5. Review the descriptions and criteria for the awards that are being given during the tournament.
  6. There will be no official judges interviews at this event, but teams will have an opportunity to have a VEX U team member look at and give feedback on their notebook.
  7. Remember that safety comes first, please don't bring tools that pose a safety risk to your team, or others nearby as the venue is a very tight fit. Also, remember no grinding or other actions that create sparks.
  8. Understand how the game will be played. VEX participants are more than welcome to watch the referee training videos before they attend a tournament. The referee training videos can be found at www.roboticseducation.org website, under the Volunteer Resources tab.
  9. Read through the Robot troubleshooting guide. The guide can be found VEX V5 Information_Troubleshooting.
  10. Ensure your robot brain has the latest version of the firmware.

Notes:

  • Alliances will be 2 teams
  • Number of elimination alliances (16-23 teams = 8 alliances in finals, 24-31 teams =12 alliances in finals, 32+ teams = 16 alliances in finals)

  • If an odd number of teams, the last-ranked team should still attend Alliance Selection in case a team withdraws due to a problem with their robot
  • All finals matches will be one-and-done (no best-of-three matches)
  • Ties in finals matches will be replayed until a winner is determined
