Team Funding
In cooperation with committed companies, we would like to enable even more children and young people to participate in FIRST LEGO League. In the 2021/22 season, there are many funding offers - for teams taking part for the first time, but also for teams that have already gained their first FIRST LEGO League experience.
Many thanks to all supporting companies!

Interested teams can choose a grant from the various offers and apply for it.
To apply, please first take a look at this website to see exactly what the various conditions and scopes of funding look like. If you have any questions, please contact us by e-mail: info@hands-on-technology.org.
