TIMS stands for Team Information Management System.
Quote:
The Team Information Management System is only for the main contacts of FIRST Robotics Competition teams. It is used to register new (rookie) teams, re-register existing teams for the new season, and update critical team information such as team name, contact information, and event registration.
Your team leader has the information necessary to update TIMS. Each year FIRST publishes Yearbooks for each competition and the information about your team that is submitted into TIMS is included in the yearbook. Judges will be looking at the Yearbook information when considering your team for an award. The Yearbook information must be completed on TIMS by February 23 - don't delay doing it as often the system slows as everyone tries to log on at the last minute. Plus, you may need to print out what they are looking for, research the information, then go back in and complete your Yearbook information. See Section 1.14 of the Manual for complete description of the Yearbook page.
