2017 FLLJr Theme

If you would like to start a FIRST LEGO League Jr. team, we welcome you and want to provide you with all the support, ideas, and encouragement you need to succeed. FIRST gives you a head start by announcing this year’s theme months in advance – Aqua Adventure!

  • Registered teams will have access to all this season’s specific documents (details of what the team is expected to complete for the season; information about how your team will be reviewed at an Expo).
  • Most teams spend about eight (8) weeks preparing their projects. Understand that your team’s Show Me poster and LEGO model must be ready before you attend an Expo.
  • You do not need to have all team member names to register.

Remember: NO EXPERIENCE REQUIRED AND YOU ARE NEVER ALONE!
