Re: 2009 New Zealand Regional Cancelled
 
Um im a little confused, how can you tell it’s a NZ team from that information?

Our team tried to register but were unable to. (This is before we found out that NZ wasn't a region)

And a little off topic i know but as NZ teams may be watching the thread, do the Westlake boys compeate in VEX? I havent noticed them, but then again i may have been assuming they were from another school.

They're going to New Jersey, so you go to the FIRST regional event list and find New Jersey (or any other event that you may be interested in). Click the Team List link and it takes you to a team list, which tells you number, official name (sponsors, schools), and location. The team in question is from Manchester, Other, New Zealand.

Okay yea i found it. But i cant find of any place called Manchester in NZ? Also as far as i know every team in NZ is starting their six week build from the 20th of april, wouldnt this give us an unfair advantage? This team might be getting their robot dilivered early though. Also there will be NZ teams compeating in the VEX regionals in Dallas and possibly Hawaii.:)

It's not a real team. It's left over from testing before registration opened.

Note that its sponsors are "Wally World & Joe's Garage."

I agree with Madison it would've been only a test team.

For 2009, New Zealand competion registration they'll be done in New Zealand as group and then passed on where appropriate.

I suppose if a school had the money for a FRC regional entry
plus transport, sponsorship etc they might be able to register for an overseas regional. But that would have to go through NZ FIRST. I can't see anyone doing this for FRC 2009.

The plan is to have NZ compete in FRC 2010 as a standard regional.

Al good suggestion about gettting team members onto Chief Delphi.
I have already mentioned it to the teacher in charge and will let the students know.

Brent
