FTC Team Grants

Iowa is very fortunate to have great corporate sponsors to help support FTC teams.

More information about the FTC team grants can be found on the Iowa FTC Team grants webpage.

If you plan to apply for the Collins Aerospace, John Deere, BAE or FIRST Rookie grants, do not complete/pay the FIRST registration fee until the grant application has been awarded or declined. FIRST will not allow grants to be "regranted", or given directly to teams after the FIRST registration fee is paid.

Register with FIRST

It is time to register with FIRST

If you have heard from grants, or if your team is not applying for any team grants, please complete the team's FIRST registration. Information as to how to register with FIRST, and how to change the primary coach information, can be found on the Iowa FTC Registration page.

*IMPORTANT NOTE: If you are applying for, or waiting to hear from a grant, wait to complete the FIRST registration prior to completing FIRST Registration. "Completing the FIRST Registration" means paying the FIRST $295 Fee. Grants become void if the team pays the FIRST Registration fee.

Reminders

Reminder #1: All teams need to have two adult coaches who need to review and complete the FIRST Consent & Release forms, which are on the FIRST Dashboard.

Reminder #2: All students, mentors and coaches are responsible for knowing Game Manual Parts 1 & 2. GM Part 1 is on the FIRST website and GM Part 2 will be released on Sept. 10, 2022.

The plan is to host fun activities among the teams. The winning team will take home a great prize! One week prior to the event, Pathfinder Robotics will be hosting a meeting to go over the schedule and other information. This is a first-come/first-serve event.
