Re: competition pit areas

Think small, and dont try to colonize other people's pit areas or the aisle.

Re: competition pit areas

If you ask nicely, you can ask the team next to you to move their table to the other side of the pit and you will have a bigger pit size. Of course though you will have to keep all of your stuff and team members on your side of the pit. This helps if you need to get back of your pit if there are people are working in front of it.

Lightbulb Re: competition pit areas

We normally only have 3-5 people in our pit at a competition, a few more after a successful match. The trick is to keep essential people in only and perhaps two or three wandering the pits scouting.

Every venue, except.. those mini comps held in HS gyms. You may only get an area the length of or half the length of an 8' folding table.

as to be expected elgin, it's high school and not very official.

The only time we've ever discouraged anyone from being in the pits is when there's already 5 people in there, the engineers have been sweating or when our team leader say "Let's all meet in the pit" and engineers and pit crew yell simultaneously "NO!!!!!"

Boy, we screamed loud that time
