Message from Bubbert coach, “FIRST New England is working on a New England FTC Invitational Event. I would wait for official word from UVM, but the plan is that all NE teams are invited, and the competition format will be changed up a little to make it a bit more balanced and fun. It will be at WPI and the targeted date is June 11th. This would be a great opportunity to extend your season, so if you’re interested don’t bleak down you bots.”
