The 4 FRC Competition Divisions all compete as if they were a separate regional.
They are named after famous scientists

Archimedes, Curie, Newton, and Galileo.
The winning alliances from these four divisions will meet on a fifth field called
Einstein .... this determines the champion alliance.

There are somewhere around 80 teams in each division...give or take a few...

Remember that this is also the World Championship (festival) for First Lego League and also the Championship for First Tech Challenge...

Needless to say... there are quite a few robotics types in Atlanta during that week!! It is an experience you will NEVER forget.

Bring shoes you can walk in.... bring a jacket for cool evenings....
bring your CAMERA!!

There are many hotels to stay in... I would contact a team near you that can help you figure out where you want to stay... most teams stay downtown somewhere... but many also stay in the outskirts of Atlanta and have to find a way to the Georgia Dome area for the competition days.

Remember you will be able to uncrate on Wednesday night....
This year we will start Qualification matches on Thursday at 1:00 PM so be READY for your inspection on Thursday morning...

Get some rest before you come out... plan on having fun....
Meet new people...

We invite you to come down to our pit.... I don't know what division it will be in yet. (Pits are also divided into the 4 divisions) but we would love to meet with you!!! We are Skunkworks Robotics.... Team 1983.... come down and meet the team and get some of our buttons!!

Congratulations on your win!! and welcome to the Championships!!!
