	So you've got the robot combat bug and you want to host an event. You should attend one and volunteer to help to learn how they are run. If you are sure you want to make a poor life choice and host your own event, head over to '''[[SPARC]]''' for a treasure trove of information for Event Organizers, including '''[[SPARC Tournament Procedures\|Tournament Procedures]]''', '''[[SPARC Match Rules\|Match Rules]]''', '''[[SPARC Judging Guidelines\|Judging Guidelines]]''', '''[[SPARC Arena Construction Best Practices\|Arena Construction]]''' and more. Once you've read everything then you need to think about where you'll store the arena, how it will be transported, where you will hold your events, and how will you get help running them. It's a big commitment and if you are ready to do it the rewards can be terrific but know what you are getting yourself into.		So you've got the robot combat bug and you want to host an event.

See '''[[Running an Event]]''' for a step-by-step guide to arenas, venues, safety, insurance, registration and running the day.

	There are a lot of best-practices for Event Organizers on how to prepare for events, set things up so they run smoothly, and avoid common pitfalls. If you are serious about starting an event (it doesn't need to be a big event), send an email to robotcombatevents@gmail.com to be put into contact with other organizers.
