Greetings VEX Robotics Competition Teams,

VEX was truly international this past weekend, as VRC Clean Sweep Competitions were held in Canada and Mexico, along with our first ever tournament in Spain. Congratulations to all the teams that participated. Teams from 5 different countries (Canada, Mexico, Spain, Sweden and the United States) qualified for the 2010 VEX World Championship this April in Dallas. Good luck to everyone competing this weekend in Colorado, Georgia, Massachusetts, Nebraska and Virginia.
