Did NJ teams like stratgey boards?

Hi, our team was just trying to get some feedback on the magnetic strategy boards we handed out at the NJ regional. Did you use them? If so, how helpful were they. If you did not use them for strategy, how much fun were they to play with? Thanks

Definitely, definitely the coolest handout. Ever. Everyone I talked to loved them. Great job, guys!

Re: Did NJ teams like stratgey boards?

super cool, except that i think that the red and the blue goals were reversed. the one other thing i might do would be to make the magnets a bit stronger, and maybe put magnets on top of the goals for the balls to stick on.

we're definitely keeping ours, i think that we have some from years past too. they are one of the only handouts in first that actually prove useful.

Re: Did NJ teams like stratgey boards?

They were great. We loved them. Our team used it all the time to explain strategies we would come up with. A team member almost had a panic attack because he was trying to explain a strategy and couldn't find the board. "Where's the strategy board? I gotta explain something." It was pretty entertaining. They were the coolest things out there.

Re: Did NJ teams like stratgey boards?

This sounds like a very cool handout! Where can I get one for me team? Do you have any extras?

Second Question: How did you make them? Does anyone have a picture?

Sadly, as of right now, Team 195 will not be attending the Nationals this year, unless a miricle happens and we get lots of money...
