Spectating
Spectators are allowed! We plan on opening our doors to spectators at 10:00 AM. A spectator pass can be purchased for $10.00, giving all day access for spectators over the age of 4. Robot combat is a dangerous sport, there will be weapons and dangerous things around. We may ask you to sign a release prior to entering the facility. Some of the benefits we are exited to offer our spectators can be seen below.
- Food trucks on site.
- Onsite concessions.
- A collectible badge that allows for all day re-entry.
- A staff guided tour of the pits.
- Time to hang out with the competitors post fight.
Want to Help?
We are currently looking for more crew! If you are interested in helping out at NHRL please follow the links below to sign up in our volunteer list or for more information about crew roles.
Competitors
During the December finals we will be fighting the following weight classes. While all of the competitors for this event have already competed here at NHRL the links below will provide more information on the rules associated with each weight class.
As safety is our number one priority we want to remind all of our competitors to refresh themselves on the rules here at NHRL before they come to our event!
Event Format
Our December 18th finals will be a one day event. During this day we will be fighting full brackets for the 3lb, 12lb, and 30lb weight classes. For this reason we will be strictly enforcing our 20 minute requirement for time between fights.
Social Media
We have recently expanded our social media presence and invite you to follow us on all of the following platforms!
- This event will be streamed live on our Youtube channel, and the live stream and fight videos will be posted there after the event.
- Join our discord server to interact with our community of bot builders!
- Our new Instagram account
- Our new TikTok account
- Our new Twitter account
Upon Arrival
- Check in with the event staff to get your badge and ensure they know you are here.
- Setup at your pit. All pits are first come, first serve.
- Pass Safety. During the safety check we will be testing your weapon lock, validating bot functionality, and verifying your radio failsafe.
- Take your bot's photo at the provided station. Once your photo is taken please upload it to your bot page!
- Join the discord for day of event updates!
- Double check the rules!
- Do not forget that your robot must be ready to fight after a MINIMUM of 20 minutes
- NHRL includes an optional audience-triggered Encore that can add 30 seconds to the fight.
- If you have time please create or update the wiki page for your bot.
COVID Regulations
We will be following the latest guidance from the state of CT. Currently the city of Norwalk has reinstated a mask mandate for all vaccinated and unvaccinated individuals when indoors. While CT currently has one of the highest vaccination rates and lowest COVID rates in the country they are taking precautions given the Delta Variant.
- If possible, get vaccinated. It's just a good idea in general.
