Smoky Mountain Regional is at Initial Capacity. That 26% of Regionals. No Districts yet.

Events close to Initial Capicity (12% of Regionals/6% of Districts):
  • (4) Razorback
  • (6) Hatboro-Horsham District
  • (6) 10000 Lakes
  • (2) Los Angeles
  • (8) North Carolina
  • (8) Montreal
  • (3) Orlando
  • (4) Finger Lakes
Here's a snapshot of FRC growth only a week into 2013 registration.

I'm interested to hear about how far past initial event capacities these numbers go.

Kind of disappointed that SMR closed up, but at 40 teams, that seems a little small, especially compared to what they were rocking last year.

Ever since it started Smoky Mountain could only accommodate 50 teams.
In 2010 Smoky Mtn was forced to ask for volunteers to free up spots for two rookies, so there wasn't a lot of leeway at the time.

Orlando usually sets aside 10 spots for rookies or wait listed teams
While last year South Florida set aside 8

There are already 7 rookies signed up for Smoky so I hope they release a bunch of spots. We would like to go again.

Re: Registration 2013
 
Is anyone else noticing a drop off of rookie teams in there area? Last year Florida had 26 rookies and this year we only have 4. The only big factor that I think could be the cause is JC Penny no longer sponsoring rookie am I wrong in thinking that or is it to early in registration to count out a mass influx of rookies?

Re: Registration 2013
 
Florida had 6 rookies by this time last year.
We have 132 new teams registered compared to 112 at this same time last year.

When making these comparisons, we can't compare early numbers from this year with the final number from last year. That particular cognitive bias skews our perceptions.

Rookies tend to sign up later, because it takes them awhile to organize for the first time, they don't start until September, and they have spots reserved at the local regional through December, so there isn't any rush.

Re: Registration 2013
 
Los Angeles Regional's reached the waitlist stage now.

Lake Superior entered the single digit stage (lost of room left at Northern Lights though).

The Orlando Regional is now down to just 1 open slot.

I'm getting concerned for us on 2815--we registered for Palmetto first, and now Peachtree, Orlando, and Smoky Mountains are at listed capacity with North Carolina in single digits with two and a half weeks until second regional registration.

Aside from going on the waitlist and crossing our fingers, North Carolina is our only real hope for not driving six hours to a regional:

Peachtree Regional (Week 3, 219 miles, 3h29m)
North Carolina Regional (Week 3, 235 miles, 3h53m)
Smoky Mountains Regional (Week 5, 264 miles, 4h17m)
Virginia Regional (Week 3, 373 miles, 6h15m)
Orlando Regional (Week 2, 430 miles, 7h14m)
Washington DC Regional (Week 5, 484 miles, 8h7m)
Chesapeake Regional (Week 7, 521 miles, 8h52m)
South Florida Regional (Week 5, 619 miles, 10h10m)
Crossroads Regional (Week 6, 688 miles, 11h4m)
Bayou Regional (Week 4, 689 miles, 11h10m)
(Distances are pulled from Google Maps, using 2815's shop and the address listed by FIRST.)

It might be close to time for a fifth regional in the NC/SC/GA/Eastern TN area--there's certainly no shortage of venues capable of hosting it. (Columbia and Clemson would be natural choices, as Colonial Life Arena and Littlejohn Coliseum have each hosted the Palmetto Regional in the past, but Greenville and Charlotte could be plausible as well.)

Re: Registration 2013
 
A lot of us are having that same concern.
I have a list just like yours heading in the southerly direction.
The Booster club is costing out the travel to a series of events.

Maybe we'll see you in North Carolina or Virginia.:rolleyes:

Re: Registration 2013
 
Mark can you post what teams are missing so far from PA and NJ? I'd like to check up on a few of them and see if any need help.
