We still could use volunteers, especially those who helped run the field during this year's game. Please sign up: http://montymadness.org/Contact%20Us.html


As far as the FTC game is considered, here's what I got from Vincent Frascella:

Quote:
Yes, we will be playing the Face-Off Game (as defined by FIRST) during the early part of the day to comprise the Qualification Rounds. There will also be a number of small “Skills Competition” mini-fields at which the teams can check and practice their skills. Yes, once again, some of the skills that are practiced in the morning will be needed to compete well in the secret “Extreme Version” of “Face-Off” that we will reveal just prior to lunch. FTC teams can strategize over lunch …then they will need to play the Extreme Game with their selected Alliance partners during the Elimination Rounds.



Hope that this information helps.
