FIRST LEGO League 2007

FIRST LEGO League 2007

June 15th, 2007

Have you registered your FIRST LEGO League team yet? Registration is open - what are you waiting for?

Details? You want details? Okay, we can do that for you.

Registration opened May 1, and continues until all slots are filled. This usually happens sometime after mid-September.

The cost to register a FLL team this year is $200.

The FLL team registration process and fee do not include participation in an event. The tournament application process will open in October.

When you register, be sure to also order the Field Set-Up Kit for this year’s challenge, Power Puzzle. Without it, you won’t really be able to do much to practice for FLL competitions! The Field Set-Up Kits will begin shipping out on August 1.

FIRST LEGO League estimates that approximately 6,720 teams will register this year, and so far, 1,715 teams already have (as of June 14th)!

This is the tentative schedule for the season:
