Sem Robotics Logo

On Saturday December 15th, SEM is hosting a 30 team official qualifying tournament. We first did this last year and it was seen as a premier event that served to underline SEM’s reputation as the place to be for STEM education.

We need to recruit about 60 volunteers to pull this off. SEM robotics teams will be helping run the tournament instead of competing. We are looking for staff, parents and students who would like to contribute their time and expertise to hosting a first-rate event.

Please have patience with the Sign Up process. It involves getting an account and following a few steps. It’s necessary for such a large event involving students. Thank you!

Full details on roles and how to volunteer are on the Iron Reign website: www.ironreignrobotics.org
