General Info

Leo Robotics is excited to host the VEX Robotics Over Under Tournament at County Line Church in Auburn, Indiana.

This is an invitational event, with the preference going to local teams.  This is due to less available events in north eastern Indiana.  If you are interested in this event, please put your team(s) on the waiting list and contact Joe Kennedy at [email protected].

County Line Church will be the site of the tournament.  This large space has ample seating and allows for the pits and playing fields to be in close proximity to one another.  

The church has a coffee bar and snacks available for purchase.  We are negotiating lunch with a local vendor that will bring orders to the church.  As well, there are several venues in the area for lunch. Please keep in mind that all food and drinks must be kept in the pit area out of respect for the venue.

We look forward to you participating in our tournament.
