Also...introducing the FIRST Robotics Canada Triple Crown!
Who will be the first-ever team to win all three Canadian Off-Season events in a single season? In order to help make this possible all three teams from the winning alliance at each event will automatically earn a spot at the next scheduled event (or an admission refund if already registered for the next event).

Districts, STEMley, and You:
As you have no doubt heard, Ontario is moving to a District Competition model for the 2017 season. With double the number of district events, we will need double the number of volunteers to staff them. Off-season events such as STEMley are a fantastic way to learn the ropes of the many volunteer positions available at a district, so we would encourage anyone who would like to be involved in the official events to come out and volunteer at an off-season!
Districts also mean that Ontario teams won't get to play as easily with their out-of-province friends in the future, so we would love it if some of our neighbours came up to play as well!
Who will hoist the cup this year...
