  • Please review the current season Guide to Judging before posting.
  • For event, registration, or other competition support questions, please contact your REC Foundation Regional Support Manager.
  • For questions related to game rules and interpretations, please navigate to the Official Game Q&A (VRC / IQ) . Click the back button in your browser, then click the VEX Q&A Forum button.
