Gracious Professionalism® and Coopertition® are at the heart of FIRST! For rookie teams, this means coming to the meets with a sense of curiosity and good sportsmanship. For more seasoned teams, it means the same plus paying forward all of the help and sense of inclusion you’ve received over the years to newer teams. Get to know one another, ask questions, answer questions and have FUN!
Registration

Location, Load-In/Out and Parking
Where: La Jolla High School (intersection of Draper and Westbourne)
Access the site from the intersection of Draper and Westbourne.  Most parking will be on the streets near that intersection.  For Team Load-In/Out, 1 Car per team may park in the Load-In/Out area.  Spaces are somewhat limited, so if you arrive early please move your car on to the streets after Loading-in to make room for others.  For volunteers that are not affiliated with a team, please use the Volunteer Parking area shown on the map.

Robots, Pits, Inspections and Matches
Inspections are completed on a first come, first served basis and will start just after 8:00am. After you check-in and find your pit, please proceed to the inspection area. Please bring your completed Robot and Field Inspection checklist with you to Inspection.
Your pit will have power. Weather permitting, they will be outside. We'll provide a 10' wide space.  Bring your own table, pit chairs, and pop-up for shade if you like.  We'll continue the practice of having you chose your pit from available options when you arrive. If you have a cart, please ensure it has soft, gym floor friendly wheels otherwise we can't let you use it in the building.
As a reminder, each team is responsible for ensuring their robot/driver communications are operable and that the latest updates have been downloaded and installed. Other teams may be able to assist you, but ultimately, it is your team’s responsibility to make sure your robot can communicate with your drive team. Wi-Fi will NOT be available at the venue.

Match lists will be handed out at the event. All teams must be prepared for the possibility of being scheduled for the first match. Teams in the first match should place their robots on the field prior to the Coaches and Drivers Meeting. We plan to hold mini-tournaments, with alliance selection at the end of the meets as we have in some previous years. These tournaments are for fun and experience and do NOT affect region standings in any way

Safety goggles are required by anyone visiting the Pits or within 5 feet of the playing field. Please bring enough safety goggles for each team member and guests who will visit the Pits.
​
Engineering Notebooks/Portfolios are NOT required for Meets 1-3. There won't be any judging during Meet #1, #2, or #3.

​Please be gracious guests and help keep the venue clean.  We want to be invited back next year!
