Our team did two "mock" kick-offs last year.
Once with the vex game, and once with a game that we designed.
We went all the way through with the game we designed, breaking off into teams and building vex robots, and holding a micro competition.
If you do design a game, make it really simple. Ours was just to see how many ping-pong balls you could get in a can in 2 minutes. One kid filled multiple cans
