We hope you will consider us again for a place. We have a great time down there with our new friends...

Reminder to all that we'll be closing applications on Friday.

Application form is here.

We'll be accepting application up to midnight tonight (PST). Please reach out to us if you have any issues with the application.

We have received quite a bit of interest and will likely not be able to fit all the teams who applied. Teams who are not accepted or who apply late will be put on a wait list.

Are there plans to post who has been invited, or will there only be a post of who has been accepted?

Awesome list of teams. Can't wait to compete along side the best in the west

[Pat Fairbank]

Here are the rules we will be playing with at Chezy Champs:

Chezy Champs will be played under the FIRST Stronghold rules with the following modifications:

1. The initial TOWER STRENGTH will be 10.

2. The Low Bar will always be in Position 1. The remaining available DEFENSES will be: Cheval de Frise, Moat, Ramparts, Rock Wall, Rough Terrain. There are no DEFENSE categories; any four of the five will be present in Positions 2 to 5 of the OUTER WORKS. The Portcullis, Drawbridge and Sally Port will not be used at Chezy Champs.

3. During qualification matches, the DEFENSES in Positions 2 to 5 will be randomly selected and placed once per round of all teams playing. There will be no audience selection of DEFENSES.

4. During playoff matches, each ALLIANCE will select the defenses and their placement in Positions 2 to 5 of their own OUTER WORKS.

5. A ROBOT contacting carpet in the opponent's SECRET PASSAGE may not contact opposing ROBOTS who are in contact with the carpet in the SECRET PASSAGE, regardless of who initiates the contact.

6. After a ROBOT CROSSES a DEFENSE in AUTO, it will no longer incur a FOUL for crossing the MIDLINE or contacting an opposing ROBOT.

7. There will be no playoff tiebreakers; all ties are replayed.

Rule 6 uses CROSSES instead of crosses when talking about moving over the defense, is it intentional to prevent a spybot from going back into the neutral zone and crossing the midline without again entering the opponents courtyard?
