Nothing is keeping you from planning to go every year.

You don't even need to bring a robot if you don't get in during the open registration or through winning a qualifying award. It's not just about competing. You can volunteer and help make things run smoother for everyone. You can attend the workshops. You can watch the FTC and FLL matches. You can still be inspired by other teams' robots.
