Coaches Honor Code for Virtual Events
We would like to remind coaches that during the competition they should not confer with students to offer problem solving guidance or support. For those teams who will be competing physically together, we ask coaches and teachers to replicate the independent and fair competition environment we would have if the event were being held on site by leaving the competition space if possible. If not possible, we ask teachers to make a commitment to refrain from providing any support or guidance to teams during the competition. All coaches are invited to participate in a virtually hosted Coaches’ Corner while the students are competing.
Additional rules, modifications, and information will be made available on the day of the event.
For a complete list of eligibility requirements see the Official Rules.
