Re: Can you have a FVC team without high school affiliation?

That's about the same response I got from fvcteams@usfirst.org:

Quote:

<my non-internet name>,

As a college or post-college student, you would be allowed to mentor a FIRST Vex Challenge team, but not to participate. The reason the website description lists the program as being 'targeted at high school students' is because we do not actively recruit middle school students, but they are allowed to join if they choose. All of the FIRST programs are for 1-12 grades, and all those older than high school age are only allowed to mentor.

Thank you,

So I need to find myself some kids next year, I guess.
