-->New Coach Call Added – FLL Global Innovation Award

FLL has added a NEW coach call to the schedule for this season . On November, 12th at 7 pm ET, learn the FLL Global Innovation Award and how it ties into the FLL season. How can your team prepare for it?

-->Robot Game Updates & Project FAQs – IMPORTANT

It is EXTREMELY important that teams check the Robot Game Updates page and the Project FAQ page frequently. Your team may have questions as they dive into the Challenge and the postings here contain official information that will be in effect at tournaments. Many teams assign a team member to check these pages before each meeting. It’s a great way to delegate responsibility!
