San Diego Kickoff Review

Just like all other teams in FIRST we were very excited to wake up early on the morning of January 4, 2014 to find out what the new game for the season would be, watching all the ideas fly around the social medial sited were so much fun. The Holy Cows and 45 teams from San Diego County showed up at 6:30am excited for this years game, it was so nice to catch up with our friends from the other team and meet several rookie teams.
Once the live feed began most of the team members didn’t know that FIRST would be showing our Chairman’s video during the kickoff, it was such an honor to see our team members up on the giant screen. As soon as the animation began teams were on pins and needles.  .  . AERIAL ASSIST!!  What an interesting concept for a game with no endgame but lot of Coopertition.
It was exciting to get down to the field elements and hear other teams talking about the game, their ideas and watching them measure everything.

After we had our Kit Of Parts we all ate and met back our school for some brainstorming, reading over the manual and talking. Our Director of Engineering, Daniella Patriarca says: “It is an interesting concept because of the corporation involved with the alliance partners. It will be a fun outcome”.
