Re: Registration 2013

Part of that could be the teacher strike issues in Canada... I just looked, and there are 42 Rookie teams, out of 128 total this year (The number I just pulled off FIRST's site is a little different from Mark's, not sure why), while Canada had 113 teams last year. That's 27 teams that dropped from last year (almost 25%!), but impressive growth in new teams at the same time! I would hope that, without the issues Canada has been going through this year, we would have had a lot more of those teams returning.
