General Info

Purdue SIGBots is excited to host our High Stakes Blended Fall Qualifier Tournament! We will be hosting the competition at the Purdue Stewart Center. This will be the fourth VRC tournament for the SIGBots. We have a long history of the most competitive VexU competitions in the world and are working to bring that to VRC. The Stewart Center is near the Purdue Memorial Union, and only a short walk from free parking garages. We hope this will be a great venue for our future events.

Purdue's VexU Team, ACM SIGBots, will be in attendance and welcomes all teams who are coming to have fun and compete. They will also be ready to answer any technical questions teams may have with VEX hardware and/or PROS.

Whether you are a new team or veteran team, we welcome you to join us!

Thank you to all teams in attendance for helping to support the Purdue ACM SIGBots.
