March 19, 2021 – Competition Program

**You will notice that we have differentiated AM and PM sessions for today. If your schedule allows for it then please complete the Deep Learning Session in the morning and 21.2 Event in the PM.

If your schedule does not allow for two sessions in one day then perform the Deep Learning Session (omit AM Movement Primer), rest until fully recovered, and then tackle the designated PM sessions that will have you primed and ready for 21.2.**
