Qualifer Locations and Dates (UPDATED)
As the new year approached, the Maryland FLL Planning Committee took note of the significant impacts of the omicron variant on schools around the state. Out of concern for the teams who may have limited access to their robots and each other for several weeks, and for the safety of teams and volunteers, the Committee worked with the Tournament Directors to reschedule the first two weeks of qualifiers to later dates. These dates are listed below, and all are now fully remote.
