Yeah we are aware if the conflicting dates. Many of our team members will be going to take their SATs in the morning and will be returning later in the day.

I picked June 4 because it was before the end of school (at least in New York) as I know gaining access to robots and equipment becomes harder in the summer. The previous week is memorial weekend (so that's out of the question) and the following week the facility in which we booked the event is being used.

We thought of three solutions:

Pushing the event later to start at 1:00 and go until late that night or early Sunday

Having the event start later on Saturday and ending at 6:00ish and doing playoffs in Sunday.

Moving the entire event to Sunday.

I know with Sunday though many people may have religious commitments as well, so I am hesitant.

If you are not able to attend because if the SAT I invite you to weigh on the decision making
