Hi Byron, we are looking at our options for this event. Many things have changed over the past 2 days. We are sending out an email to teams later today. Thanks for connecting; make sure to stay safe and prioritize the safety of yourself, your students and the community.

I’ve registered a team but haven’t had any correspondance. With the event coming up soon and Covid restrictions likely stopping our work it is possible we won’t be able to compete until late May. Any chance of postponing the competition until early June?
