Re: What kind of things should be taken to competition

There is actually quite a lovely checklist in the FIRST Manual - the very last page of Section 3 - "At the Events" http://www.usfirst.org/uploadedFiles...vents-RevC.pdf. It is a great way to start the thought process.

If you look on the checklist - Safety Glasses are the ONE THING that is REQUIRED!

And along the same lines, First Aid kits are actually optional. A good idea, but optional. It is more important that your team knows what to do in case of an injury, and how to prevent the injury in the first place, than being able to produce a first aid kit for the judge.
