This is the only thing we didn't do last season, which was physically practicing plays before competition. I made our mats last year only before our third regional, and worked the whole night by myself coming up with plays the night before we flew out for the Colorado Regional, so we never got to actually practice plays, even though we had a good idea on how to do them from just simply showing my drivers.

I'll be glad to make and post my team's strategy mats for the next coming seasons when I can, by the way, so teams don't have to hassle with making their own.

Plus, if anyone ever tells you that FIRST is not a sport, then show them these mats, and ask them how it isn't. It may not be an athletic sport, but it's played just like one, and the athletes are the robots, since they're the ones on the field and really playing the game. The drive team is just there to be the brains.
