FIRST Washington Event Registration
Event registration will be opening October 18th. You will not register through your dashboard at firstinspires.org, you will register through a link I send you in an email like this. When you are confirmed in an event it will not show up in your dashboard either, the only place to check will be on firstwa.org.
When you fill out your event registration, you will pick two preferences, please do not pick the same event for each one, if you do this and I am unable to place you in your first choice, I will place you in a random event with space. You will also indicate if the day or the location is more important to your team.
Registration is first come first serve and some events will fill up fast. Teams are placed once their event registration is completed and their event registration fee of $350 is paid. All of this is done manually, so please be patient.
Team Registration is Closing Soon so Register Now!
The last day to register your team will be October 14th, so register now before our region is full.
Returning coaches can log into your account at:www.firstinspires.org.There you will have the opportunity to register your teams for another year.Please look at the notifications in the upper right corner and take care of the consent and release and required profile updates.
*A note on registration. They did add the option to opt out of the challenge set for those registering multiple teams that don’t need multiple sets, but there is no way to buy the challenge set at a later time. If you opt out you WILL NOT be able to go back and order one separately.
