CCC has always been a great event with a very friendly and hospitable atmosphere. While the Tators missed it last year, we look forward to some friendly competition with our California friends…
While at our first official planning meeting last night, one of the committee had on a Team Tators shirt (JV Gill). We were all excited to hear you were coming back to CCC!
Glad you guys signed up! You won’t be disappointed.
Today is a happy day! I can’t wait to see you guys again! We sometimes even have potato parties where we eat things that are potato and watch the TV/movies.
First, here is the current team list. This is shaping up to be our biggest and best CCC yet! If you haven’t registered yet, do so at the link at the top of the page.
Registration has closed and we have our official team list. This list is subject to change, so we will likely not have a match schedule until the Friday night of load-in.
Also, we will be making a rule modification based around the field and what we observed last week at Chezy Champs. In addition to removing the Drawbridge, Sally Port, and Portculis defenses, we will also be removing the Rough Terrain, leaving 5 available defenses. Because we now have exact number of defenses as their are slots, these defenses will remain in fixed positions throughout the tournament, including eliminations. The positions are as follows:
Position 1: Low Bar
Position 2: Rock Wall
Position 3: Moat
Position 4: Cheval De Frise
Position 5: Ramparts
We will be offering full pizza pre-orders for Capital City Classic at lunch. Pizzas are 14” in diameter, sliced into 12ths, and are $15 each regardless of type. The types available are Pepperoni, Hawaiian, Cheese, Meat, Combo, and Vegi. The pre-order form can be found here. Pre-orders must be submitted by 10/13. Pre-order payments will be done through PayPal (you will not need an account in order to pay, we will bill you directly for the amount of pizza ordered).
Also, here you’ll find you’ll find a site map for Capital City Classic 2016 at Cosumnes Oaks High School. The pits will be split between the aux gym and the cafeteria, and you can find which pit location your team is assigned to on the map.
Bro you sure about that? Well used FIRST boulders are a lot more consistent than the multicolored Gopher balls. I’ll find a way to bring a field’s worth of boulders myself if it means no Gopher balls.
That said, if you figure out a way, I’m sure we can find a use for them.
