Attention students!

Ever wonder what it’s like to be on the other side of a judge interview? Now’s your chance to find out, and get a unique perspective on awards!

This year’s Blitz will hold it’s second annual Student Judge Panel! Students will be guided through the judging process with NE FIRST Judge Advisors and several judges. This is a great way for students to get an inside look at what goes on behind the blue polos. Sign up now, we have 14 available judge positions for any student on any team!

Sign-up here!

Will there be any rule modifications at Beantown? Battlecry had some great ones and it really changed the game. If there were rule changes when would they be announced?

Re: Beantown Blitz 2016
 

Yes we will certainly be modifying the rules a bit. We're in final discussions and will plan on publishing the rule changes by the end of this month!

Team list as of 10:00am this morning, several more spots are expected to fill up in the next couple of days as teams have reached out and are finalizing plans:

Will Angry Eric be the emcee?

Re: Beantown Blitz 2016
 

We're psyched to go to Beantown Blitz, but has a schedule been decided yet? (There doesn't seem to be a lot of information available...)

Re: Beantown Blitz 2016
 

Just want to remind folks we're running student judges and still have a few slots available. This judge room will be using different awards but similar process, timing, and training to that used at official events.

Re: Beantown Blitz 2016
 

Is this event open for people to go to and watch from the stands or is it only open for the teams that have registered and the people affiliated with those teams? I was thinking of coming down and watching this event as it seems like a whole lot of fun.
