Re: Holding your first FIRST Lego League tournament
Madison,

I have been holding FLL tournaments (both a qualifying and the Championship) since our team ran the pilot for FIRST in 1998. I can help you make this happen, but you must start working full speed right now.

I am assuming that you are running a qualifying tournament since I have not heard you on any of the FIRST FLL planning calls. You should have a state partner that has asked you or your team to host the event. That is the first place for you to start. That person should have been attending the FIRST phone calls. In Michigan we have 14 qualifying events this year and we are holding regular phone calls to make sure that all qualifying event leaders are kept up to date and have all their questions answered.

Send me an email (walter.hickok@eds.com) and we can schedule a meeting to help you. At this time it must be done via phone...this method will take too long.

I look forward to hearing from you and with all the help of FIRST, you will have a wonderful event.

Thanks,
Walt
