FIRST Championship Spots for Houston

by Stefanie Sieber

The FIRST Championship in Houston is set to take place April 16–19, 2025, offering teams a chance to showcase their projects on an international stage. For the 2024/25 season, we have spots for both Explore and Challenge Teams to participate!

Explore Teams: One Explore Team from Germany, Austria, or Switzerland can participate. Registration fee: $750 USD. Teams must arrive by April 17, 2025. If multiple teams are interested, a lottery will determine the participant. To apply, contact Andrea Kaden at ak@hands-on-technology.org by February 6, 2025.

Challenge Teams: Four spots are available: two for Germany, one for Austria, and one for Switzerland. Due to the short timeframe (just two weeks after the finals), spots will be allocated via a lottery. Submit your interest by February 11, 2025, using this application form. Winners will be notified directly.

📌 Requirements for participation: Participation in the current FIRST LEGO League season. Independent organization of participation (travel, accommodation, and funding). Demonstration of FIRST LEGO League Core Values within your team.
