I hate to be the subversive anti-establishment type, but I agree. It's better to beg forgiveness than to ask permission.
If the upper echelons of FIRST are what I think they are, they won't let bureaucracy tie them down much more than the occasional CYA (Cover Your touchAs). I wouldn't worry about it too much if I were you.
