Start here, particularly the team guide:

And the manual:

As you're reading the materials, there are some places to pay attention:
* Notice that practice matches are only Thursday morning. Quals start after lunch
* You'll probably be scheduled to be playing longer each day, unless you were at a large regional.
* There will only be 2 practice fields, each shared by 2 divisions.
* The pit map isn't up yet, but be prepared to walk a lot. Although nowhere near as much as when we were in Atlanta.

You should expect to have a lot of fun. Use the opportunity to look around and see what other teams do -- in their pits, with their robots, and as a team. You can get a lot of ideas for next year. Also, make sure you take advantage of the opportunity to check out the other FIRST programs.

Good luck.
