Website Updates

Over the weekend we made considerable updates to our website and associated guidance for coaches, volunteer and teams. The updates were made primarily to gain equity with the new Competition Manual changes as well as FIRST requirements for on-line team registration and roster requirements. We also made an addition to the Registration tab dropdown called “Waitlist Invitations”. This is the calendar schedule for when we will invite teams that are on Waitlists to specific events.

Please read the headliner sections and let us know if you find any discrepancies.

Thank you for your attention and cooperation.

Sincerely,

Tom Zawislak and the FTC PA Team
