Overdrive is played on a 27 by 54 foot carpeted field. Two alliances of three teams each occupy the ends of the field from where they control their robots. Each team is composed of drivers, a coach and a new position, the robocoach. The center of the track is spanned by the OVERPASS, which is six and a half feet above the floor. A six foot tall LANE DIVIDER runs down the midline of the track. The two structures help define the FINISH LINES on the red and blue lanes of the track. The game pieces for FIRST Overdrive are 40 inch inflatable balls known as TRACKBALLS. There are two for each alliance. The objective of Overdrive is to have each alliance move their robots and TRACKBALLS around the track as rapidly as possible and gain points each time they cross their FINISH LINE. Bonus points are earned every time a TRACKBALL passes over the OVERPASS.
