General Info
This league is primarily for teams from schools in LAUSD Region North. Teams from schools in other LAUSD Regions may participate if space is available.
When you register for this league, please choose Pay Later as your Payment Method and bring your league fee check for $150 per team to the first league session. Please make your check payable to Mulholland Middle School Robotics.
Teams will be invited to submit Digital Engineering Notebooks online and to schedule Remote Judging interviews by December 18, the first day of Winter Recess. Remote Judging Interviews will be held during the two weeks before the final league session. Details will be sent to registered teams via email and posted on the Judging Format tab by November 30.
Before your first league session, teams need to upload the release forms for all student and adult team members in RobotEvents.com.
The league will be meeting in the Mulholland Middle School Multi-Purpose Room (MPR). Parking is available in the school front parking lot and on the street.
Each league session begins with Team Check-in and Robot Inspection. Teams need to check in by 4:30 PM and robots need to pass inspection by 4:45 PM to be included in the Teamwork Challenge match schedule.
At Team Check In for the first league session, teams turn in league fee checks, verify that they have uploaded release forms for all team members, and sign up to provide one volunteer for at least one league session.
At the first Qualifying Session, each team will be scheduled for one Teamwork Challenge Practice Match and three Teamwork Challenge Qualifying Matches.
At the next two Qualifying Sessions, each team will be scheduled for four Teamwork Challenge Qualifying Matches.
At the final Championship session in January, teams participate in up to three Driving Skills Matches and up to three Autonomous Coding Skills Matches. Robot Skills Challenge Matches are not scheduled. Judges may also request follow-up interviews with some teams. The Championship session concludes with Teamwork Challenge Finals Matches and Awards.
Teams need to provide at least one volunteer for at least one session. If we do not have enough volunteers, we may not be able to complete all scheduled matches. See the Volunteer tab for details.
We will have two competition fields and two practice fields at each session.
Food and beverages may be available for purchase.
