I know this wasnt one of the choices but Xerox because of the teams they support and just the extent they support FIRST in general! X-RoX!!!

I'm not sure how you would really fairly measure this since there are so many ways to have a successful team in FIRST.

But I can tell you that for the 2006 season, the most successful starter of new teams is NASA. Of the 35 rookie teams that went to Championship this year, 19 of them include NASA in their name as sponsor.
Ewing Marion Kauffman sponsored 3 of the rookies at Championship. This is impressive considering this was the first year of their grant awards and they are very regional in their distribution of grants.
Diamler Chrysler and ITT each were sponsors of two of the rookie teams.

Through the NASA grant program, NASA has probably sponsored half of FIRST at one point or another. Additionally, NASA also has sponsored 21(?) Regionals at one point during their history, including the always popular NASA/VCU regional. Because the NASA grant program is so huge, we have opted to leave it out for the purposes of this discussion to try and level the playing field. ;)

Yea I have to agree with Dylan on this one. Even though Xerox isnt a choice I would say that they are a great sponsor. They really care about the FIRST program and they want students to get involved with it. Thanks Xerox!
