Open Robotics Competition (ORC) Scrimmage

Connect with other builders. Test your bot. Play a few matches.

Join us for an Open Robotics Competition (ORC) Scrimmage at Monumental Impact. This event is for those building an ORC bot to come together with other builders, compare ideas, troubleshoot designs, and get some friendly scrimmage matches in.

This is a practical, hands-on opportunity to see how your bot performs, make improvements, and learn from others who are building, testing, and iterating too.
