NorCal FIRST Tech Challenge Qualifying Tournament Registration :: 2021 Freight Frenzy

Tournament registration will take place in 2 “waves”. Each wave is made up of two registration windows and covers the registration for a month’s worth of tournaments.

1st Play is reserved for teams that have not yet registered for a qualifying tournament. 2nd Play is reserved for teams that have only registered for a single tournament. We don’t anticipate the capacity but if we have room, there will be a 3rd Play window.

We are closing registration to teams that are from the areas outside of the NorCal FTC Region until further notice.

Waitlist: NorCal teams that have not yet registered for two tournaments may indicate their interest in attending additional tournaments by signing up for the WaitList by sending an email to ftcwait@playingatlearning.org. Teams may ask to be put on up to three specific event waitlists at a time.  When tournament space becomes available, it will be offered to WaitList teams in order. If a team in the WaitList declines an opportunity, they forfeit their waitlist spot and the option passes to the next team.

All registrations are done through a per-team link found on the “status” page on the “Team List” in the rightmost column.

Cost: Payment for registration is done through the link on the registration confirmation page. Please note that the fee for in-person qualifying tournament registration is based on a sliding scale; $150 for 1st play, $175 for 2nd play and $200 for 3rd play and beyond. These fees will be the same for either in-person traditional events or remote events.
