Just noticed on my FIRST Dashboard (I'm our primary contact) - FIRST has a new page they call "Spotlight" - "Tell us more about yourself and your team. All fields are optional."
There's a field for your robot name and uploading a robot picture. You also get 255 characters each for each of these fields:
Team strengths
Most significant challenge overcome
Robot and game strategy
Briefly describe your team history
Team effort promoting FIRST
Team effort promoting STEM education
Team's community involvement
Team sustainability and fundraising effort
There's also a printable version of the page, and a drop down menu for "Team Award History" that's just blank for us.
My thinking is that this page is meant to be a unified solution for the questions we get asked at events - I know sometimes they ask us to fill out an info sheet about the team.
FIRST has also added a "Payment History" page. I can't tell if this is for me or the team, as it seems to be grouped with my personal information. Maybe a response to a recent thread (https://www.chiefdelphi.com/forums/showthread.php?p=1622132) regarding confusion with their FIRST account.
