Re: Registration 2011
2074 total teams, after having just lost a Lone Star rookie.
Some event team lists have continued minor fluctuations up through this posting.- 266 net gain (14.7%) - percentage-wise not as good as 2008 and earlier, but much better than the past two years.
- 416 (20.1%) new teams - ~5% better than last year, but on a par with 2009 and earlier.
- 18 resurrected veteran teams
- # teams lost was ~equal (+1) to last year. Retention rate was the highest since 2003 with an 8.3% (adjusted) loss of veteran teams.
Not including Championship,- 23% of FRC teams are attending extra events, including 11 Michigan 3rd district teams (still leaving 7 unused MI District slots).
