FIRST Overdrive is played on a 54 foot by 27 foot (16 m by 8 m) track divided length wise by a fence. The playing field is crossed in the center by an overpass marking the finish lines. Two three-team alliance race around the track in a counter clockwise direction to gain points. Two large 40-inch (1 m) diameter "trackballs" for each team lay on top of the overpass. Teams can also manipulate these trackballs for additional points.
