FRC REBUILT Blog: Volume 14

Event & Kickoff Registration Closes Today! 

We still have a few spots we need to fill at SunDome.  Please consider going to SunDome for a 3rd play.  I will waive the 3rd play registration fee! 

You DON’T have to secure your registration by November 18.  FIRST Washington will secure your registration for you and then will send you an invoice for the FIRST and PNW FRC District Fees either by the end of this week or the week of November 24th. 

FIRST Choice and Virtual Kit of Parts 

I have been getting a lot of questions about FIRST Choice and the Virtual Kit of Parts.  Here are a few things you need to know: 

• If you don’t know what FIRST Choice and the Virtual KoP is, you can find more information here:  https://community.firstinspires.org/first-choice-and-virtual-kit-of-parts-have-launched-for-the-2025-season  

• Your team needs to be secured with FIRST HQ in order to access both of these 

• Your teams are not yet secured with FIRST HQ (We will talk a bit more about the timing of things on our coaches chat tonight) 

• Teams will be secured with FIRST HQ by the end of the week, then you should be able to access these tools. 

Next FRC Coaches Chat is tonight, November 18 at 7:00 pm 

Last month, we focused on how to become a 501c3, On this coaches chat we have invited our President, Fred Krug and Development Director, Lila Mowatt to join us and talk about fundraising. 

We will also go over the invoicing schedule, what will be on the invoices, how they will be sent and when they need to be secured.   

Make sure to have 1 adult attend!  Every year I get tons of emails asking questions about invoicing.  We will be going over this in detail tonight.
