LA FTC Championship
None of our teams made it to the championships, but I still wanted to go and see the level of competition that takes place at them. The teams involved all had very innovative robots and it was impressive to see them competing.
LA-Inter League Tournament A2 and C1
We had our final meet this weekend at the ILT for leagues A2 and C1 held at Monrovia High School. As usual, the teams all did a great job in a challenging environment. There was some last second scrambling to adjust our autonomous modes due to a misinterpretation of one of the rules, but everyone came together to get it working as best as possible before the matches began.
The scores and rankings can be found on the FTC website here: https://ftcscores.com/event/uK37mUU_
La Canada C1 League Meet 3
After a nice break over the holidays, it was time to return to robotics and we came back in a big way. Team 13889, “No Chance”, finished the meet in first place! Congratulations everyone and keep up the hard work.

La Canada C1 League Meet 2
One more match down and all of the teams improved. Everyone did a great job getting ready for this match and practicing new scoring strategies with only 2 weeks since Meet 1.
We also started a Github repo to store and share the code for our robotics teams here:

Final build days before Meet 1. Things are coming together quickly. All teams have more ideas for improvements in the future, but there have been some great advancements since Meet 0.

Team Number: 13229
Was called “CougarCoders”, and now will be “RoboSquirrels“
Team Number: 15041
Was called “RoboGIRLS”, and now will be “We Come in Peace“

Build days – November, week 2
All of the teams are making great progress and making big improvements to the robots in preparation for the upcoming meet.
Build days – November, week 1
The teams all learned a lot at Meet 0 and seem a lot more focused on their robots after seeing this years game in action. We met twice this week and there is already a lot of progress on updated chassis and work on constructing linear slides to use for stacking.
