1.) I'm not entirely sure but I would assume so, as you can't buyt an FTC kit without registering for the competition. You can always buy the part separately and form you own 'kit'.
2.) A team takes as many hours as you are willing to put into it. If you want to be competitive I would recommend meeting 3-4 times a week, excluding driver training. As with FRC, designing a great robot is 1 thing, but having drivers that can control it and know what to do in EVERY circumstance is another.
Good luck!
