Junior/Major Bridging event

Presentation of Azer’s idea (HELSI) - presented in other TCs meetings, and document sent by email

  • What is the overall bridging idea?
    • Is it a bridging or junior event? Amy believes that junior would be more motivated to join if we have an actual bridge event to increase the number of novel teams
  • If we want an entry level, how do we make sure it is not becoming its own tournament?
    • for example, limit the participation time
  • Which are the requirements and ideas?
    • Marek: The event should be more availbale, affordable, give some results that juniors can be proud of.
    • Marek: Some use Webots environment to remove the difficulty of hardware
    • Luis: Juniors could be a good opportunity for them to move to Major
    • Amy: We should not focus on the age of the participants (high school, junior, etc…) more to have it as entry level for HL
