Teams aren't ready, but you can still get a "feel" of the competition. Usually I just walk around the pits, watch performances on the practice fields, etc. As the team strategist, its beneficial for me so I get a feel of what type of robots I may see at the competition during practice day.

Also if your team uses a electronic scouting system it's always super beneficial to test out your system to make sure it runs as you want it to during practice day.
