If you would want some help starting a team in Australia, our team would definitely love to help. Just this year, we started a program call FIRST Interactive Rural SupporT to help support, maintain, mentor, and begin new teams in rural and isolated areas and Australia is definitely isolated from the states and other teams. If you would like some help from our team with finding sponsors, mentoring, fundraising - anything at all - we'll (as well as the many other teams who have joind FIRST Interactive Rural SupporT) help you with anything you need to get started.
You can contact us at
cybersonics@cybersonics.org with any of your questions, comments, or concerns. Please feel free to also check out our FIRST Interactive Rural SupporT website as well at
