The D-Town Dustoff FIRST LEGO League scrimmage was held at the CCIU's Technical College High School Brandywine Campus, 443 Boot Road, Downingtown on Saturday, 23-November. This was our 8th Dustoff. As always, the Dustoff was run like a Qualifying Tournament to provide teams with a useful practice session prior to their qualifying tournament.
This is a great FLL experience for 2 reasons:
1) Your team has a chance to show off their project and robot
2) Your team has the benefit of a great qualifier dry run. Same judging process. Same robot game process. Same schedule.
