Helpful Hints:
- Arrive early to allow plenty of setup time
- Bring extra extension cords and surge protectors
- Pit displays are encouraged - you want to attract the judges!
- Engineering Notebooks may make/break an award nomination

**Mentor/Community Challenge Rules**

Its for lunch break during our home competition whats going to happen is we are going to invite mentors and walk in teams that are not a part of the VEX challenge for the day. The teams and mentors have the morning to build and program their robots to compete in this little challenge.

The game elements are 28 green soccer balls placed on the field(clean sweep) there are 2 footballs one per alliance these are the only preloads (clean sweep) , there are 20 cubes 10 for each colour (elevation) and the parking platform flipped over and resting on a lazy Susan this is the PIT.

Football in pit=5 points
soccer ball in = 3 points
cube in pit= 2 points
cube in home base= 1 point
cubes touching another of the same colour in the home zone= multiplier of final score (x^n^x) where x=number of cubes
Matches run For 2:00 minutes there is no autonomous period
Alliances consist of 3 teams on the field at a time
One driver per robot and one coach optional but must be a student competing in the challenge for the day

The size constraints are
mentors= 16"x16"x16"
walk ins get a super chassis kit to start off
there are no omnidirectional
no sensors
6 motors and 2 servos max
Must run using crystals
mentors are required to bring all their own parts and equipment to compete in this challenge
