I`ve made another post asking for this help for our regional and incredible it was a sucessfull, thanks for all the american teams for help foreign teams, but now we need help once again.
We were classified as Finalist team and we won the Rookie All Star on South Florida 2017 Regional and we need help with batteries, does any team can provide(lend) for us in HOUSTON, TX Championship a package of some batteries and maybe some batteries charger? We have only 3 batteries and 1 batterie charger in our school and we cannot take them with because of airplane, if your team is from HOUSTON, TX and is insteresting in help us, please contact me replying this thread or contacting me by e-mail [email protected]
We going to be thankful a lot if you can help us, thank you soo much:yikes:
First off, congratulations on qualifying for Championship as a rookie team–and for being able to make it back to the States for it!
FIRST does have batteries in their Spare Parts carts, much like you probably saw at South Florida. (Indeed, they may be the exact same ones from South Florida depending on which fields are sent to Houston.) So you do have that option, though supplies are limited and they will have some matches on them.
Another option that may be useful: AndyMark will be doing Ship To My Pit at both Championship events. Shipping is free, and you’ll have brand new batteries arriving Wednesday night. Obviously, you then have to get rid of your batteries after Championship since they can’t go back either–but you could give them to the fellow rookies beside you (the Championship pits tend to be in team number order within each subdivision) or work out a trade with another team for something you can bring back with you.
(If you *do *order new batteries, make sure to bring your battery cables or order extras!)
Full disclosure of the probably-obvious: I work at AndyMark.
Thanks for trying to help us Bill, but we don’t have money to order new ones, if we had money i will do it, do you know any other team that can help uss? possibly from houston?
