Actually, I have found that seeing the robot in process hooks many potential sponsors/media and interests them in attending the actual event. It comes down to how you publicize. If they come expecting parts and incomplete robots then it works out well.

Re: Practice Event before Regionals

Team 48 has held a pre-ship event/scrimmage the Saturday before ship date each year since 2002. We construct a full size practice field and run as many full length matches as we have robots and time for. We try to send out invitations to all the teams in the Eastern OH/Western PA region, but it's open to anyone who are desperate for some live action before the regionals begin.

Any teams wishing to use the practice field prior to the pre-ship are also welcome to do so if they call ahead to make arrangements first. Feel free to PM me if interested.

Re: Practice Event before Regionals

Yep, Aces High will be hosting another preseason event this year, we planning already and hope that all the local teams that came last year will return again and we also are welcoming new teams. Last year it was at the new Suffield High School, in CT not sure exactly which school it will be at this year bacause of the use of our gym... more to come in the future...

Re: Practice Event before Regionals

It is a great event before regionals. It has done well in the past, an this year we are comming up with new ideas for our scrimmage such as: a theme, a name instead of Suffield Scrimmage, an give aways. There will hopefully have shirts an raffles and prizes. Hope all who went last year had a blast, an hope to see new teams this year.
