Field Layout

The Aim High field has 3 goals and 2 platforms. Unlike previous years, an alliance's goals are on the far side of the field. The field is flat, measuring 54 feet long by 26 feet wide.

Alliance Station

The aliance station wall is 26 feet long and stretches the width of the field. In the middle 18 feet of the alliance station wall exists diamond plate aluminum from the floor to 3 feet high, with clear acrylic filling the rest of the 3 1/3 feet. The outer edges of the wall consist of transparent polycarbonate.
