What registration fees must I plan to pay in addition to becoming an FLL team and buying the robotic kits and fleld set up kits etc.?
In addition to the fee for becoming an FLL team ($200), there is a fee for the qualifying tournament you choose to attend (usually $45) and a fee for the Championship Tournament (usually $35) if your team advances. You can plan on about $280 total cost in fees. The fees help to cover the cost for hosting the tournaments. Since the cost for hosting these tournaments is high, sponsors are also necessary. The sponsor for the Indiana Championship tournament is ITT Corporation. Once you have registered for the qualifying tournament in Indiana of your choice, you will then be contacted by the qualifying tournament director and given the details you need.
