MA State Championship Date and Venue Announcement/November Scrimmage Spots Still Available!

Greetings 2022-2023 MA FIRST Tech Challenge Teams,

MA States Championship:  

The MA States Championship will be held at Andover High School (AHS) on Saturday, March 4^th, 2023.   Many thanks to Andover for being willing to host this season!

Snow Date:  

As of this email, AHS is uncertain if they can host a snow date on Sunday, March 5.

Natick High School has graciously agreed to host on Saturday, March 18th (or March 19^th if there is inclement weather on the 18^th) should we need to reschedule March 4^th due to snow.

Please mark your calendar for these dates, and we will keep you apprised if AHS can host a snow date on March 5th.
