Re: How does Nationals work?

These alliances than play each other to determine the national champion alliance.
Last year, I attended Nationals.
Goobergunch has summed up the format quite well.
The flow last year was quite well actually. The only complaint being the long walks between the pits / the fields / the stands. This year, FIRST has said that they have improved upon that.

Congrats on winning the NJ Regional!
I look forward to seeing you in Atlanta.
