Re: FIRST Brand Refresh

Dropping the acronyms from the logos doesn't mean that FIRST is going to send in a SWAT team if you refer to the FIRST Robotics Competition as FRC. It's stressing that people unfamiliar of FIRST as a whole and some even familiar with FIRST may not think of our competition when they hear "FRC".

Use of FRC in official internal FIRST documentation will likely continue and will definitely still be accepted as a constant in the constantly evolving jargon surrounding participants in the league.

When you introduce your team to others though, tell them you're a FIRST Robotics Competition Team, not an FRC team. You probably already do it, and you probably should have been doing it before the official change.
