Good Day Teams,
 
UPDATED 12-12-2017

Attached is the match schedule for the upcoming FIRST Tech Challenge Relic Recovery 2017-2018 season. We have done our best to create a schedule that meets the varied and sometimes conflicting requests of each team.
 
Here are just a few reminders about how league play works:

  1. Each team has been placed in one of four leagues: Gauss, Descartes, Euclid or Turing. 
  2. All teams will compete for 4 weekends in Dec-Feb. There will be 3 weeks of league play called “League Meets” followed by a “League Championship.”  Each league will have its own League Championship.
  3. In week 1, teams will compete only with other members of their own league, but for weeks 2 & 3 teams will competing against teams from all 4 leagues.
  4. During weeks 1-3 teams will only compete your robot.  There will be no judging during weeks 1-3, although you should plan on setting up your pit (for a 6’ foot table only please) like you would at a championship.  These league matches will take about 4-5 hours.
  5. The top 10 scores for each team from weeks 1-3 will be used to rank teams for the League Championship.  For example, if your team won at least 10 matches, the 10 matches in which your team earned the highest Ranking Points (i.e., number of points scored by the losing team) will be used.  Your team would then enter the League Championship with 20 Qualifying Points (i.e., 2 QP per win) plus whatever number of Ranking Points you earned in your top 10 matches.  Then, you would earn further QP and RP at the League Championship, and your ranking at the end of the League Championship qualifying rounds will be the total of the QP and RP that you started the day with plus the QP and RP that you earn that day.
  6. At the end of league play during weeks 1-3, the top 4 teams at each site will select alliance partner (creating a 2 team alliance) and compete to determine who is the winning alliance for that week’s play.  Trophies will be given out to the winning alliance and the finalist alliance. This is an opportunity for teams to practice scouting, alliance selection and have a bit of extra fun.  Scores from these semi-finals and finals are not used as part of the top 10 scores for League Championship ranking as they are not part of the official FIRST scoring structure.
  7. Each league will have its own Championship.  This will be 3/4 event including robot competition, judging, and awards.
  8. 9 teams will advance to the San Diego Regional Championship from each league.  Advancement is based on the criteria laid out in part 1 of the game manual on page 22.
  9. If you still have not paid your $250/team fee to compete in the San Diego Region (this is separate from the fee to USFIRST national), we need your payment by the end of November.  Make check payable to RISE and mail it to 3517 Hugo Street, San Diego, CA 92106.
  10. Tournament hosts will be sending you additional details in the near future.
  11. Dean’s list interviews will be held at the League Championships and all Dean’s list nominations must be submitted by mid-January, 2018.  More details regarding this process will be sent out soon.
 
Questions?  Just ask.  Good Luck teams!!!

All four RSF teams; 7696, 8605, 8606, and 12605 are wishing everyone in the San Diego region "Good luck this season!" We are looking forward to hosting teams in the Gauss League at R Roger Rowe School on Dec 9th as well as some other League teams on Jan 13th. We are looking forward to seeing what creative designs teams have come up with to face this year's challenge!

David, do you have a starting and ending time for the December 9th event yet? I would really appreciate it if you could let me know. It would help me greatly with some personal scheduling I need to finalize. Thank you so much!
