Earning a varsity letter on the CircuitRunners is more prestigious than just being on FRC. We have individual requirements that vary a bit year to year, but are all mostly the same. We require letter recipients to:
- attend a competition in both fall and spring semester
- volunteer at either our annual FLL or FTC qualifier
- attain X number of service hours
- attain Y number of fundraising hours
- maintain Z grade point average
- receive 2 letters of recommendation from team officers/mentors
These requirements are set in order to make sure that those team members who receive letters are those who actually deserve them by further aiding and improving the team.
