I haven't been involved with 1766 in a while so I can't say what the rules are currently. But we have always been of the mindset that anyone that wanted to join, could. We actively wanted students from nearby schools to join.(They were reluctant due to the driving distance, but we did succeed with a couple of students.) I imagine if someone from California wanted to be on the team, we would have let them. Admittedly, they would have had limited access to the robot unless they was willing to travel.
