Welcome to our first VRC event of the year, "Battle in the Big Country - Over Under", sponsored by ATEMS Robotics. 

We will have two competition fields, one Skills field, and one practice field. We need two additional Over Under field element sets so if your team is willing to bring a complete field element set to this competition, please email [email protected] or call 325-733-7439 before completing the registering for our tournament and ATEMS Robotics will pay your team's registration for this tournament.

We are very excited to hold this event at our new CTE center. Doors will open at 7:00AM.  Registration and inspection will be from 7:30AM - 8:30AM. Practice rounds will start at approximately 9:00AM and we are asking each team to complete one practice round on the competition fields to verify proper connection to the Smart Field controller.
