League Assignments are LIVE! 

League home assignments are posted on the FIRST Washington website here. Assignments were based on teams submitting both their FIRST Inspires AND FIRST Washington registration as of 9:00am on September 30th.

If you were not registered with FIRST Washington or FIRST Inspires as of September 30th, you were not placed in a home league. To be placed in a league, reigister with firstinspires and FIRST Washington.  We will updated the league list once a day in the morning based on the registration information from the night before.

New this year! Your team can preference into another league using this form.

• This form is meant to only be used in cases where you want to opt out of your pre-assigned Home League. If you want to remain in your Home League, do not submit this form. 
• All of our event dates are published on the FIRSTWA Calendar 
• We will attempt to place teams into their top preferences, but that is subject to event capacity. 
• Teams are limited to selecting leagues within 75 miles of your team. Any selections further away than that will be removed.  
• The form does not enforce this, it will be handled manually before assigning leagues 
• You must select at least two (2) leagues that you would like to move to, but may select up to five (5).  
• If we are not able to place you into any of your preferences, you will be placed into your original home league. 
• If you have multiple teams and want them to be kept together, we recommend you stay in your home league. We will not guarantee that your teams will be placed in the same league if you enter the preferencing system. 
• Reach out to Adrienne Collins (acollins@firstwa.org) and/or Kevin Emery (kemery@firstwa.org) with any questions or concerns. 

The preferencing window will close on Wednesday, October 9. Final league assignments will be posted by the end of the day Friday, October 11. 

OnShape with Kevin this Fall

Kevin is doing his onShape workshops a little differently this season.  Instead of having live workshops, he has pre-recorded a series to allow people to move at their own pace.

If you have students who would like to learn CAD for FTC, here is a playlist of a series of videos for learning how to use OnShape.

If you have questions, feel free to reach out to Kevin Ross at kevinro@firstwa.org.
