VEX Sydney Day 3: Qualifying Round

Our big day finally arrived! Today is the competition qualifying round. This morning we woke up very early at 6am for breakfast. After that we made our way to the competition venue.



After the opening ceremony, we immediately got into action. Team S05 and S06 partnered with other teams to compete in the VEX 'Clean Sweep' game.



Before each game, we discussed strategies discussed yesterday and executed the plans. Boths teams performed very well and scored many crucial points. However, not everything was a smooth ride. We faced technical issues and we must solve them on the spot. Sometimes we made mistakes and we learnt along the way. At the end of the day, the teams recorded a total of 6 wins.

Both teams also presented our mechanical journals to the judges. The judges asked us some questions and we managed to answer them confidently. We hoped we have impressed the judges.



Good news came from the Robotics Skills Challenge! Liren was the top scorer of the day in the Programming Skills Challenge and is currently the top contender of winning this award for Singapore tomorrow!

We really looked forward to the Grand Finals tomorrow! No time to blog now, it's time for robot maintainance and vigourous testing before the Grand Finals!
