About 1,000 students will converge on the Stan Sheriff Center tomorrow for a robotics competition.

Students from 24 Hawai'i high schools and four Mainland teams spent weeks preparing for the event, which will feature a "soccer" competition.

The free event is open to the public.

Practice rounds will be held tomorrow, with the competition kicking off Friday. The final day of competition is set for Saturday.
