What is the game (and the kick-off)?
Every year, FIRST comes up with a game that FIRST teams must build robots to play. This year’s game is called “Logo Motion”. In this game, robots have to place tubes shaped like the FIRST logo on scoring racks at opposite ends of the field. The kick-off is the annual event in January when the game is officially announced. The game is unveiled and demonstrated to the public on this date. From the kick-off to the date the robot must be shipped to the first regional, teams have six weeks to build a robot that can play the game announced in the kick-off.
