Could this create a market for old robots? Say a winning team decided to build a new robot. Their old robot may have value to another team that wants an easy path to a competitive robot.

EDIT: An even better market may be for CAD models. A winning team may be able to sell 50-100 copies of their CAD model for say $500 each. That would fund their next season. Today, CAD models are shared freely because they have little direct value to the next game.
