Help us by volunteering for youth robotics tournaments!
The FIRST Tech Challenge Los Angeles/So Cal region serves 150+ teams in the greater LA region. Each team has up to 15 7th-12th graders who must design and build a robot for a new challenge every year. This season's game is SKYSTONE SM Presented by Qualcomm. More information on the game can be found here:
https://www.firstinspires.org/robotics/ftc/game-and-season
Our region hosts 55 competitions a year, all run by volunteers. Our big tournaments are coming up and we are looking for more help. There are many roles available both technical and non-technical. No experience is necessary. Some roles require training before the event and some can be explained on-site. All roles have lots of documentation online. Time commitments are different for each role. We can help find a role that works best for what you can give.
The big needs for volunteers are Judges and Referees.
Our InterLeague tournaments will have 25-32 teams competing each day.
