Delaware FLL Events

Below are all the events we have scheduled for the Delaware Region of FMA-FLL. These are presented here to allow us to indicate that there are FLL Challenge and FLL Explore teams in the same event. We want you to be able to quickly scan down the page to find what you want.

To aid you, we have different event types with different color codes for each. For example an FLL Challenge Qualifier looks like, QUALIFIER.
But if the FLL Challenge Qualifier also has an associated FLL Explore Festival it looks like this, QUALIFIER+FESTIVAL.

All Codes: QUALIFIER, SCRIMMAGE, TRAINING, WEBINAR, WORKSHOP, EVENT, CHAMPS, FESTIVAL

Note: Please let us know if you are interested in running any events.

This is an Unofficial Community Event. It is listed here to help notify all members of our FMA-FLL community about the various opportunities to learn, share, play and compete.


Description:This event is designed to provide help for newer teams to understand the workings of FLL.
There will be 3 sessions in total. The exact dates will be confirmed by Mid September. We expect them to be last week in September and then the first week of October, but this is subject to change. This is information only at this time
Session 1 Intro to FLL and Judging
Session 2 Programming and Robot Building Information
These sessions will run from 7:00 PM to 8:30 PM. These sessions are for coaches and mentors only. If a coach wants to bring their team to a session, those sessions will be held in late October or by special request if time is available. We want coaches to be comfortable with how the FLL Challenge process works so that they are able to effectively pass the information on to their team. We will give advice on the proper procedures to follow in judging sessions at FLL qualifying events and what the judges are looking for and grading teams on in a session. We will also help coaches to better understand how to program and build an effective FLL robot. Finally, we will answer questions on what to expect at FLL events.
Registration will open in a couple of weeks. There will be a Google Form posted where you can reserve a spot. Capacity is limited, so first come, first served. We ask veteran teams to allow rookie or first second-year teams to apply for this event.
