Re: 2007 Waterloo Regional feedback

Team 830 has been to Waterloo twice, now, and it's definitely our favorite event! We love the small-regional feel, and getting to play 11 matches is a great thing. It can get somewhat hectic at times - we had one match where we only had two matches off until the next one - but the benefits of playing that many times outweigh the downsides, in my opinion.

One of the great additions this year was the practice field. It was really nice to have a full rack available for practice. Last year, we spent a lot of time working on our tracking code in conditions that were less than favorable. This year, having the practice rack right there made it so much easier to practice and test things out.

Overall, Waterloo was a great event, and there's a pretty good chance we'll be back next year!
