Good evening VA/DC
FLL,
This note is to let everyone
know about the upcoming regional qualifying tournament registration
period. You will be able to access the newly updated
registration system via the VA/DC FLL web site (www.vadcfll.org).
Registration will be open on October 4th at 10:00 am and close on
October 18th at 4:00 pm. I will resend this email
right before registration opens.
Tournament assignments will
be announced by Friday, October 22nd. We will do
our best to accommodate your first choice of tournament, but there are only a
certain number of slots available for each location so - as in previous years
- registration will be first come, first served.
The tournament listings have
been updated and can be found on the “tournaments" page of the VA/DC FLL Web
site. I have also pasted them at the bottom of this message
as well.
Please be aware that cookies
must be enabled on your computer in order to use the registration
system. If this poses a problem in your school or place of
business, you will need to use another computer or have someone else register
for you.
WHAT WILL I NEED TO BE ABLE
TO REGISTER FOR A TOURNAMENT?
- Your national FLL team
number as provided by FIRST.
- Contact information for the
coach.
- Team member details
including name, gender, date of birth (to allow the system to assign age
division), and whether or not the team member has participated in FLL
before.
- Your top three choices (in
order) for tournament sites
OTHER THINGS TO KNOW ABOUT
REGISTRATION…
* Because we know that a
number of you are managers - and in some cases coaches - for more than one
team, you will have the option to register multiple teams and list different
coaches for each team. If you register more than one team
then you will be responsible for any updates to each team that you register or
you will need to share your log in information with individual managers to do
so themselves.
* Any manager or coach email
addresses provided will be automatically added to the "admin" email list from
which all administrative messages will be sent.
A SPECIAL NOTE TO TEAMS
REGISTERED WITH FIRST THAT DO NOT PLAN TO PARTICIPATE IN A VA/DC FLL
QUALIFYING TOURNAMENT.
* Even if you don't plan to
register a team for a VA/DC FLL regional qualifying tournament this season,
please log in and make note of that so that we don't have to contact you
separately (there will be a clear place to indicate this on the first
page). This will help save time for our very busy
volunteers who would otherwise have to follow up directly with any
unregistered teams.
Thank you for all that you do
and we look forward to an exciting season!
Karen
