I am coach of a small Public school team with no funding. I am proud to say the kids didn't start building until late October when the team was formed, and that it is 100% their creation and programing and it earned them 245 at state. I doubt that this team can claim to have the same 100% student involvement with all phases of their build...

-I'm just saying

@domfranchino as the parent of one of the team members all I can say is if you knew these kids and their coaches you would think twice about your comment. This is a group of extremely bright boys who love this competition. They practice many, many hours and have coaches that know how to bring the best out in them.

Are you sure that you may drive to the arm and the hart with those cars?

[YoungerDykstras]

Seriously? Their robot did better than our team's. The arm is maybe over 16 inches, but you may not kick from the foot, the rules are fine with kicking below the knee.

[robotguy846]

that is so true, and they didn't even get 400. the rules clearly state that the kick to get the goal must be from the knee and it clearly wasn't

[andrewpmack]

The arm used to move the blue and white box is well over 16" in height and clearly outside of base (vertically) at the last restart. The judges are slackers and this isn't 400 points.

@MissXylo As a referee for the FLL Open Europeon Championships: It is allowed, as long as the pullback cars are triggered by the robot ONLY. Also the pullbackmotors have to be selfmade and not the standard pullbacks that are in some LEGO sets.

@domfranchino Team funding has nothing to do with success in the FLL. Kids living in South America, India and Portugal, poorer than any kid in America also participate and do very well. Its all about the effort the kids put into it and the time they spend. It also helps to be a returning team, rookies have a lot to over come. Teams will always do better in their second year.

Getting 245 at state was very good, its good to be proud of them! Congratulations!
