I UNDERSTAND THE FOLLOWING:

1. The kids come first FLL is about kids having fun and getting excited about science and technology. Everythng my team does starts and ends with that principle.

2.The kids to the work. This is their opportunity to learn and grow. The kids on my team do all of the programming, research, problem solving, and building. Adults can help them find answers, but cannont give them the answers or make the decisions.

3.My team is comprised of ten or fewer members, is registered as an official FLL team, and all team members are no older than 14 on January 1^st of the Challenge year.

4.FLL communicates with my team via my email address, and I am responsible for reading and relaying all aspects of FLL guidelines and rules to my team, other coaches, volunteers, and parents.

5.I will encourage my team members, other coaches, volunteers, and team supporters to develop and practice a set of FLL Values that reflects FIRST’s goal to change culture in a positive way by inspiring others through our team’s actions and words.

As the coach of a FIRST Lego League team, I agree to abide by FLL Values, plicies, procedures, and standards.
