General Info

Welcome to our new season starting event!

We are happy to present the Middle School Madness.  This event is designed to get your teams up and running for the season.  Some key information:

  • It's FREE!  No costs for this event.  We know that this early int he season teams are struggling, so we wanted to offer an event where students could participate easily and talk to other teams to jumpstart their ideas.
  • Robot not yet complete?  Bring it!  This is a great way for new teams to learn the basics in a real tournament environment.  As long as your robot passes inspection and can move, we are all in for students to come and learn.
