Practice FLL Tournament

We got invited to a FLL practice tournament!

Saturday, October 5th, 8:00 am - 5:00 pm.

Because of the tremendous growth of LEGO Robotics in our District, Roosevelt Robotics is pleased to host a Practice Tournament for all of the Glendale based teams. We will follow a traditional tournament schedule consisting of three judging sessions (Robot Design, Research Project, and Core Values), 1 Robot Performance Practice Round, and 3 Robot Performance Rounds for score. The judging sessions will be evaluative and educational. Our judges will help your team prepare for the Qualifier Tournaments held in November.
After the official Robot Performance Rounds are over, we will provide each team with 3 additional Robot Performance Rounds, but with technical assistance from our group of Mentors. (During an actual tournament, Coaches and Mentors are not allowed to talk to the robot drivers.)
We won't have an actual schedule until we know the exact number of teams, but the day will start at 8:00 am and end at approximately 5:00 pm. Traditional FIRST LEGO League awards will be given. Watch for updates as we approach the tournament date.

PARENT VOLUNTEERS:

  • We will need parents to help coordinate transportation for kids (who aren't able to attend with their own parents).
  • Spirit Wear will need to be distributed before this meeting.
  • Signage - we need some fun signs to root on our team and signify a meeting place
  • LUNCH - we are going to need sustenance and although each child will be responsible for their own food, having a parent designated as the food provider will be helpful.
