Approximately the top 50 teams in Western Washington move on to the District Championships, and the top 50 teams from each District Championship move on to Worlds. Each year, the competition is completely different, and we don’t know the objective until the first January of the year. However, we do know basic items we will need like a drive system, approximate frame size, registration fee, wiring, and programming. The build season is incredibly short as district competitions start in March. We meet as an after-school club in a common area in the hallway of our high school and store our equipment in the mechanical room. Starting in September, we meet three days a week but increase to four days plus weekends during build season. We are one of the smaller teams in the district without a dedicated classroom or teacher and our robot is completely designed, tested, wired, programmed, and built by us students.
