Thanks Sonya. We did run across this question and found the link on the USfirst website.
 
Even after following Step 3, there will be 5/16" (inch) gap in ease-west direction and about 1/4" (inch) in the North end of the table wall. With this configuration for Two table configuration red ends of the Bridge will line up on the North side of the boder wall.
 
NOVA Regional Assistance:
 
I will need some assistance for assembly of ten (10) Mission Models.  This mission models will be used primarily for the NOVA regional at Rocky Run  on Nov. 7 and probably at Thomas Jefferson (Nov. 15). If any teams in the Northern Virginia would like to help send me a separate e-mail at [log in to unmask] with your team number and Coach contact number.  I can assign max two per team and on first come basis. Adult supervision is required during the assembly. It should not take over tow to three hours per set. 
 
I cannot answer any questions about the NOVA or DC regional and team assignments. Team placements to this regional will be done by the State officials.
 
Thanks.

Hi guys,

I just found the answer on the FIRST site.  Read Step 3 under the section "Field Mat Placement".

All,

I noticed the same thing on our mat and have asked FIRST folks for guidance.  If I get anything I'll put it out here.

Team 956 is using a table that another team has used for years and that team
was very successful during those years. The table is regulation sized.

This years challenge mat is small by about 3/4 of an inch in the long
direction and maybe 3/8 in the short direction.  Are other teams seeing the
mat not fully fit the table?

Thanks
