Hey this is Amanda...people call me biggs...hence the screen name...and as for the sweatshirts, we were given them to remember some of the team memebers that graduated....and we'll always trade sweatshirts or accept team shirts...The whole reason we even think of trading shirts is to remember those special people that we meet during competition...when we make friends we want something to remember them by...is that so wrong? :D we're just some girls that wanna have a good time this year...who's with me on that? :cool:

PLEASE!!!
 

Well I think you are looking into this I BIT too much! First is for fun and if ther are people that are willing to give out a shirt with it being there last year is first I don't think First can stop them! Sorry but you shut me down and then ask who is in the pic and that is me in the center! But we are jstu having some fun, loosen a notch in your belt allright? This is just a fun thread!

Ash...I'm not wearing a belt? What should I do? ;)

As for shirts being given away......I really don't think FIRST will care unless the food people have a contract to sell FIRST Team shirts.......lol

ok, as i see it, and after 3 years of competitions, no one is going to care if one team member gives a shirt to another person on another team as a gift. its no different from giving a birthday present to your friend or whatever. The only thing specified in rules is food related, and that is obviously from the point of being able to cut down on messes and if venues have food stands. And i mean, honestly...there is no way that venues would sell shirts specific to a team.

Yea mimi I agree with ya! there's nothin wrong with it...but let's move on I think everyone has gotten in what they wanted to say! If you don't agree with it then no one is making you give it away, and if you do then thats cool too! Mimi girl theres less than 2 weeks til Buckeye! I can't wait to go and cheer! it's gonna be so fun! I'm just glad you convinced me to take off work to go!

no one cares
 

noe one will say anything if you give out shirts... the rule is geared towards the groups that gave out stickers and whatnot. they ended up creating a horrible mess as everyone decided to stick them everywhere. anyways, did you say grand rapids regional
