This can be the most important part of your team’s work. The project research and presentation will bring together all the elements of the annual challenge. The presentation provides an opportunity to express the results in wildly creative ways. Since it is required to compete, you might as well get all the facts. This session will give coaches a chance to have a discussion with veteran coaches on how they prepared their teams for the tournament.
