You will receive driver, and coach buttons when you arrive and check in. Your drivers and coach must wear these if they want to enter the field. It's for safety.

As far as what to know: Bring EVERYTHING you can. If you used a tool on the robot and can bring it you should. Also bring spare parts or materials to fabricate from.
