Re: 2015 Texas District Ranks
 
How I estimated the 25-27 teams from Texas was...

PWN had 151 teams and will qualify 31 teams or 21% of teams
FIM had 338 teams and will qualify 68 teams or 20% of teams
MAR had 122 teams and will qualify 25 teams or 20% of teams
NE had 173 teams and will qualify 35 teams or 20% of teams

Texas had 133 teams so 20% of that is 26.6 teams, but there might be some rounding up or down in there, so I gave a range.

Looks like there currently about 200 teams in Texas, according to this page on usfirst.org.
The page says 236, but some entries are for teams that did not participate in events (but still seem to be registered).

20% would qualify about 40 teams for Worlds.

There were 136 teams in TX so they would have had 27 spots not including pre qualified teams or those that won a spot in the lottery.

The 236 number includes teams that have participated in the last few years but not this year and teams that started to register as rookies this year but did not actually complete registration or dropped for whatever reason.

Just double checked some entries on the list and it looks like you're right about this.

What puzzles me is the ~100 difference between our two statistics. Do you remember where you found the 136 statistic or where an accurate team count is available?

I got that info from RIMS (Regional Information Management System) which only FIRST Staff including Senior Mentors like myself can access. Sorry I don't know where the public can find an accurate team count.

About 50 of that difference is split equally between 2014 teams that didn't return and 2015 "rookies that didn't finish registration. The rest would be teams that dropped out before the 2015 season. I believe the system keeps the data for 3 or 4 seasons after a team had dropped out so it probably contains teams that last competed in 2012 or 2011.

I don't know why the info displayed on the public pages does not pull its info from the RIMS page that displays only teams registered for the current season once registration has closed for that season.
