Team Blast February 12, 2026

Hi ,

Here's some updates and news from FIRST® Tech Challenge.

In this week's blast:

Submit Your Advancement Preferences
New this year, advancing teams have the opportunity to choose their next adventure through the Event Preferencing System, and you don’t have to wait for your Regional Championship to tell us which events you’d like to attend!

There are no automatic advancements this season.

All advancing teams (including those advancing to the FIRST® Championship) must submit event preference lists through the Event Preferencing System.

Read more about this new process on the Event Preferencing blog.

Event Preferencing occurs in five rounds. Teams are assigned to preferencing rounds based on the date of their Regional Championship.

Teams will be notified of their assigned event by the deadline of their preferencing round.

Read more about the next Preferencing Round and the schedule of future Preferencing Rounds.
