Re: Registration 2010
Are there any spots that will be filled at Boston? I'm hoping to see Gael Force get a spot.

I take it that FIRST doesn't show who is on the waiting list at regionals correct? |

In a normal year it looks like 7 rookies +/- 2 would be average. I'd need a larger set or I'd have to know your region better. Your Regional Director should have a good idea. I'd imagine the press to recruit new teams dropped off after the huge increase in new teams exhausted your volunteers last year. #teams = total #rookies = new teams #post-rookies = rookies the year before, who returned #missing post-rookies = rookies from the year before who didn't return Code:
#teams #rookies #post-rookies #missing post-rookies |

Re: Registration 2010
I finally took time for a closer look at our new teams so far.
This is just from looking at the team list and the schools/locales. Everyone knows about: 51 - merger of 47 & 65Several other schools played before under other numbers.
Anyone know some interesting tidbits about local teams? |

On the South Carolina Front 1618 is out for 2010 and is joining forces with 2815.

Re: Registration 2010
I copied some wrong numbers earlier in the Texas team totals.
The total teams hailing from Texas were take from a subtotal column, instead of a totals column. Here's the corrected version. Sorry about that. Quote:

This Boeing sponsored second year veteran team is based at Normandy High School in St. Louis. 2009 was their third rookie season. Their second rookie season was 2003 as FRC 1210. (ref) Their first rookie season was 1996, before FRC teams had permanent numbers. That team was sponsored by Emerson Electric and had participants from Cardinal Ritter College Prep and Normandy HS.

Re: Registration 2010
Made it past the 200 new team mark today.
81% of last year's teams have re-registered, leaving 19% still missing. About 325 teams from last year haven't been heard from (not counting the teams we do know about that have merged or renumbered). More total teams (1346) have now returned this year, than returned last year (1336). 14 past veterans teams have rejoined us (about normal results for the past decade) after being out of competition for:
2005 was a doldrum year with 6.6% overall growth. That's roughly what this year looks like too, we're seeing maybe half the double digit growth FRC has experienced over the past four seasons. |
Re: Registration 2010
Just curious on your missing teams data.
From Indiana I know of TWO teams that are "registered" but don't shown up on any regional list yet (in TIMS) because they are on a wait list for Boilermaker. They aren't registered for any other regional. Are your numbers based on what you see in TIMS? If so, there maybe other teams like the Indiana teams that have only signed up for their local regional but stuck on a wait list. It would be nice if we could see the wait list teams. :-) |

The talleys I quote are taken purely from the reported TIMS numbers, so year-to-year comparisons remain somewhat constant and can be repeated by others without special knowledge being required. That way the news is always better than what I've been reporting.:) Some waitlists have already been cleared by their Regional Directors (looks like: Seattle, DC, Minnesota, and all the Michigan district events have cleared their waitlists), while others keep teams languishing waiting to see which rookie teams form. Mike Betts got a look at all the regional waitlists two year's ago at this same time and there were 33 teams event-wide that had registered but didn't show up. http://www.chiefdelphi.com/forums/sh...6&postcount=48 Based on the two teams you know about, it seems like Boilermaker has an estimated 5 slots remaining unclaimed in case anyone wants to sign up... |
