2. Check the official VEX forums for rule updates and changes.

3. Visit the tournament's page on RobotEvents and read it carefully. Specifically, look for information about the team's put area, available concession areas, electrical sources and any venue specific rules.

4. Pack for the event the day before the day of departure. Here are a few items that you don't want to forget.
* Goggles/Safety Glasses
* Spare parts & tools
* Batteries and chargers
