Parcel Requirement Question

[Ryan Sword]

My team wondered if there were any more specific requirements for the parcel part of the competition. We were wondering if we had a basket to place the parcel in if it has to have the same size specs as the parcel ( 15" 13" 8" ). Since the parcel is in the form of a reusable bag, which is formable we were thinking of using a smaller basket to hold the parcel that we just shoved the parcel into. Also, can the school choose anything to put into the parcel as long as it meets the weight requirement or are there other requirements not listed for the contents for the parcel?

Hi Ryan,

You can choose your own design and mechanism to secure the parcel as per the rulebook section VIII.I.4

Sommle key points to keep in mind are - the parcel should not be damaged during the course of the event, damage (if any) will be accessed at the end and appropriate penalties will be given. 

The parcel will be a reusable bag, however the contents of the bag are decided by the host school which may/may not be flexible enough to fit in a smaller space, also the parcel cannot be opened to rearrnage the contents.
