FRC Pre-Rookie Team Activity
 

Here we have what we think is a VERY GOOD Pre-Rookie team activity for a forming FRC team. All of the details can be found here,

A Brief summary: We created an FRC Style game as a tool scavenger hunt. We tried to model the experience around the Game Kickoff experience with a release video and Game Manual.

Time Frame:
This activity would require at least 4-5 hours of prep work for the coach that might want to use it to adapt the material to your team.

Plan for a 1.5-2 hour Game Kickoff night

Plan on the scavenger hunt taking about 1.5 - 2 weeks (we timed it to cross over two full weekends)

Plan on a 1.5-2 hour Game Finale night.

Had a chance to briefly look through this and man, this is very well developed!! Kudos to everyone who worked on this.

It seems like a really awesome idea - and while we are not a pre-rookie team there are definitely bits and pieces in there we can use to help train rookies and help them understand what FIRST is. Seems like a lot of people don't fully understand the depth of FRC until their first competition exposure, but this could really help some kids get better insight into how things work.

Thanks for putting this out there!
