Back to back regionals

[sportzkrazzy]

Normally my team, 1592, attends two regional events per year. One of them is always the Orlando regional and the second is an event that we have to travel to as well. With the addition of the regional event in Boca Raton this year we feel it would be crazy not to attend an event that would cost us so little in terms of travel. The Orlando regional is a week two event and the regional in Boca is a week five event. Because of this It would mean that our team would have to attend back to back regional competitions.

I was wondering if some of the teams out there that have done it in the past had any feedback on there experiences when doing this. How far away where the regionals? Did your robot show up on time? Did the student's grade suffer as a byproduct? Would you do it again? What weeks would you suggest?


I was also wondering what other Florida teams planned on try to attend both Florida regionals and/or three regionals total.

Thanks for the feedback,
Zac
