Off-Season Event Registration
Looking for a fun way to have new members experience an event, try out a new mechanism, or network with other teams? Register to attend an off-season event this fall!
Off-season events are hosted and run by individual FRC teams, not FIRST Washington. This means each event’s participation requirement(s), fees, and timelines may vary. All events will utilize the Reefscape game.

PNW FRC Registration is open!
PNW FRC registration is open. For those of you who have already registered, THANK YOU!! For those who haven’t, please take a moment to register if your team plans to participate this year. For FRC teams, this is the best way for us to know you plan to participate prior to when team preferencing ends the beginning of October.
This form also gives you access to the FIRST Washington Registration grants that are used to lower your registration.
Just a reminder that the District Championship fees have been decoupled from the season registration fees so the season registration fee is now $11,800. Teams that qualify for District Championship will be charged an additional $4000. We hope to have some funding available to defray the District Championship registration grants.
