**Note 1: Priority for the Bulldog Bytes Region 1/9 VRC League will be issued to schools located in LaSTEM Regions 1 and 9. Schools outside these regions will be put on the Waitlist and moved to Registered/Competing Teams based on available spots once registration closes.
**Note 2: For this event, organizations are welcome to sign up as many teams as they would like, but any teams after 4 will be put on the Waitlist and moved to Registered/Competing Teams based on available spots once registration closes.
*Teams DO NOT have to attend every ranking session. When in a league, every Team will be ranked based on the number of Matches played. Teams that participate at least 60% of the total Matches available will be ranked above Teams that participate in less than 60% of the total Matches available (e.g., if we run 4 ranking sessions with 4 Qualification Matches per Team, teams that participate in 10 or more Matches will be ranked higher than Teams who participate in 9 or fewer Matches).
*Practice matches will be each day of days 1 - 4 from 4:45 to 5:30 (approximately 2 matches per team per day). Qualification matches will run from 5:30-7:30 (approximately 4 matches per team per day).
*Skills will run from 4:45-7 each day of days 1-4.
*Engineering Notebooks need to be submitted at the beginning of League Finals (2/1/24)
*Alliance Selections will take place at 5pm on the night of League Finals.
