How Do I Join/Form A Team?
How Do I Join A Team?
Teams may be all around you or you may need
to form your own team. Check with school,
local organizations, or friends to see if a
team in your area has openings. If you can't
find one, it's easy to form a team.For
assistance finding funding, contact
karla.andrew@wku.edu.
How Do I Form A Team?
A team consists of:
- 5-10 kids ages 9-14 (boys, girls, or
both)
- An administrative coach (not
required, but recommended)
- A technical coach (you don't need to
be an engineer - a basic knowledge of
how things work is sufficient)
Costs:
The cost of participation in FLL generally
ranges from $600 for new teams to $300 for
returning teams
Time
Commitment:
Once the challenge is released
(mid-September), a team typically meets once
or twice a week for about two hours. This
depends on the age (and thus ability to
maintain focus), and other time constraint
issues. Separate technical and
administrative coaches can significantly
reduce the work load of running a team and
increase the fun for the kids and adults.
To Register:
Registration usually opens in early May and
ends in late September. To register your
team and get started, you can go to the
official FLL registration website at
register4fll.com (Click
here to get there). Please follow the
steps presented on the website. |
