Do you have a teammate in mind? If so, what is their or their robot's name?

If you are an inexperienced bot builder, do you want to be paired with a Mentor? If you are an experienced bot builder and want to help show someone the ropes, do you want to be a Mentor? If so, you will be entered into our mentorship pairing pool.
