Central Valley Robotics has developed a region management application called MyCVR to assist with Team, Volunteer, and Event Management for both FIRST LEGO League programs. 

MyCVR and the National Registration System (at firstinspires.org)

MyCVR pulls information from the national registration system. Coaches should understand the relationship between the two systems. 

• Due to limitations from FIRST, CVR staff must manually sync information from FIRST to MyCVR. When a sync occurs, MyCVR will update all coach screening information and invite new coaches to manage their MyCVR roster.  Only teams that have paid the national registration fee synced.  

• MyCVR cannot edit any information in the national system. Any changes made in the national system will need to be made directly. 

Starting a New Season

Each season, MyCVR monitors the list of active teams and performs the following actions:

• Team Payment for Season. When MyCVR detects a team has paid their fees for the season, then MyCVR will activate the team for the current season.  Additionally, MyCVR will perform the following for each Team Contact:

  • Returning user: if the email address is already registered in our system, it will add the updated team to the user's account. The user will receive an email saying their account was updated.

  • New user: if the email address is not registered in our system, MyCVR will sent an invite email with instructions on how to create an account.

• Team Contact Information Update.  If MyCVR detects that contact information has changed (new coach, screening update), it will:

  • Screening Update: update the screening status of coaches in MyCVR, which will be reflected on that user's Action Items and on the Team Information Page.

  • New Contact: perform the same steps as above (new vs returning user) and perform the appropriate actions.
