Are You Ready for First Event Registration?

Have you registered for the 2017 FIRST Robotics Competition season yet? In order to be ready, your Team will need your two (2) Primary Contacts to pass our Youth Protection Policy screening process. Please see this document for detailed documentation about how to check if your Team is ready.

Beta Testing

This year we are once again looking for 90 teams, 30 for each software language, to help us test the 2017 FIRST Robotics Competition software. A small number of teams have been invited to bypass the application process based on past performance in our Alpha and Beta testing. Most of the spots are still up for grabs, though, so make sure to fill out the application found here by Monday, September 26th, if you are interested. Beta teams will be asked to upgrade their 2016 robots to the 2017 software, perform some specific tests, and help educate other teams about the changes for 2017.
