(Sorry, but I've been burned by trivialities at Registration far too many times at past events, so I like to make sure I'm prepared.)
My apologies if it is slightly confusing, this wording is left over from the Boston Regional Welcome packet which is what I used to start this document. However, it is still accurate that consent and release forms must be submitted for all team members, it is just that most teams are now doing them electronically. C&R forms are still part of the FIRST manual, please see section 4.7.1 (below). If there are team members that do not submit electronically, they must submit at every event including the NE CMP.

Quote:
4.7.1 Consent and Release Forms
We highly encourage all FRC team members to submit their Consent and Release forms electronically.

FRC Team Mentors registered in TIMS will submit in TIMS: https://my.usfirst.org/frc/tims/site.lasso. Student team members will submit via the FIRST Student Team Information Member System (STIMS) at: https://my.usfirst.org/stims/site.lasso. Having your team members and mentors submit their Consent and Release forms electronically will make things much easier for you—no excess paperwork to collect and keep track of!

Please note if a team member decides to submit their Consent and Release form electronically, it will cover the team member’s attendance for the entire season – from Kickoff through Championship. However, if a team member chooses to turn in a “hardcopy” of the form (i.e., printed out from the website and signed) he/she will have to provide it at the Kickoff event (if attending) and at every competition. Details on the Consent and Release form process are available here: http://www.usfirst.org/roboticsprogr...d-consent-form.
Bold Emphasis mine.

But we are more than happy to answer any questions so that teams can make it to & through the event smoothly
