FIRST®  Team Sub-Block Request

UPDATE 1/5/2023:  Team requests for blocks have exploded for the 2023 FIRST Championship!  At this time, it is taking us a bit longer than 5-7 days to complete the allocation. We are currently working to secure additional hotel rooms so that we can fulfill your block request.  Please allow us the additional time to secure your block and we promise to get back to you as soon as possible.

ALSO NOTE:  We have been notified by the city that there are citywide events prior to the 2023 FIRST Championship and the weekend afterwards. Because of those additional events in Houston, we are limited in the availability of rooms pre and post event.  If you are requesting any prearrival/post event rooms, please let us know these are definite and please be conservative in your request. 

• Complete and submit this hotel sub-block request form - one submission per team. If you need more rooms after your block has been confirmed, please send an email for that request. DO NOT submit another block request for additional rooms.

• You will be required to submit your team number & team name. Do NOT skip this information! If you do not have a team number yet, please enter "000".

• Please make your hotel choices from the list of hotels. Each hotel choice must be unique. Do not duplicate hotels as this will only delay your sub-block assignment.

• Hotel availability is on a first-come, first serve basis. Larger blocks may require two hotels to fulfill. We will make every effort to place you at hotels that are close to each other if that happens. If your team can use rooms with one king bed, please let us know. You might get a closer hotel!

• The FIRST® Housing Team will confirm your hotel and block and send further booking instructions within as soon as possible. We appreciate your patience and understanding.

• If your hotel choices are unavailable, we will assign you to a hotel based on the criteria you indicate.

Important Deadlines:

• The deadline to assign names to your rooms is Monday, March 13, 2023. Starting on Tuesday, March 14, 2023, any rooms not assigned with a valid name will automatically be released from your sub-block. You will receive reminders for this deadline. 

• Starting on March 13, 2023, the name assignment deadline, if you wish to request a different hotel than what you were assigned, you will have an opportunity to do so. This will require you to release your existing hotel and room block. More information will be provided for this option closer to March 13, 2023.
