Re: Michigan, be honest, how is the district model?

The cost of the first two districts regionals is paid for through registration.. And each additional district is $500.00

The state championship is $4,000.00

Meaning doing three events in Michigan (2 districts and States) = 9,000.00

Doing three regionals outside of Michigan is about 15,000

Plus the State Championship is almost einstien level play..

Now for my own personal opinion... Since its start in 2009, there are two things that stick out more than anything, FIRST's growth in michigan and how many robots actually make it out to the field for ever match. The districts being held in highschool gyms make the competition seem that much more exciting. i would suggust this system to others because of the level of play has risen all around our state.
