Hello Everyone,
I hope everyone is ready for another year of exciting robotics with VEX-IQ. There are a number of events scheduled for this upcoming year, 6 competition events and 5 robotics workshops. This year’s competition within our B.C. region will be quite competitive, as one of our teams from last year was the international winner of the middle school division – Team Work Challenge.
A listing of our event schedule is found here: https://vexiqbc.com/events/
New this year is our ‘unofficial’ VEX-IQ Highschool competition. You can find out more here at our website: https://vexiqbc.com/vex-iq-highschool-league/
Beginning this upcoming Friday at Eric Hamber Secondary School we will be host the VEX-IQ Demonstration and Scrimmage. At the event, we will be introducing this year’s new game. If your team has a robot ready to play, feel free to bring your bot and tryout this year’s game.
