Re: Team-name rules(?)

There are lots of things to consider when choosing a team name. I applaud you for taking the time to ask here about it!

There are no official rules, however FIRST might ask you to change your team name if it was considered offensive.

Give some thought to what the team name looks like to sponsors, what it looks like printed on t-shirts and marketing info.

Say it out loud (as though your team was being announced at a competition) - does it sound like you want it to, or could it be mispronounced or worse, does it sound like something else when said aloud?

Since your team name, number, colors, etc. make up your FRC identity, choose wisely.
