You need a new table.  You may also need a new carpenter.  A school should be using heavier/sturdier materials than a foam table.

The north-south (short) side dimensions seem to be off by 1.75 inches (the thickness of a 2x4).  Standard practice tables should have a double wall on the north side (at least in the center section as each year there is usually a mission that straddles the wall (the longstanding coopertition theme).  Ideally there should also be a 2-2 inch extension ledge level with the inner table surface to support the shared mission model on the outside.

Please note that this year's  competition mat needs to be trimmed by 1-2 mm on the North edge to fit a regulation table (new materials!)

Good luck,
Anant

All,

My school carpenter built the specs I downloaded for a stow-away foam table but it looks like the specs are off.  Is this too much to trim?  I do not want the team to practice to the wrong distances from the base.  Shall I have him rebuild at this juncture, or does someone have a spare table they can get to me asap (Northwest DC 20016)?  I won’t panic until I forward these images to my Director today.
