Re: [FTC]: FTC Super-Regionals
I suppose that statement would make it so you could compete within your region... but this system is designed to discourage teams from competing at events far beyond their region in a last hope to make a seat a world/region championships.
South Carolina in particular had a large problem with that this past season. Not to say we didn't enjoy the competition from out of state..but when only one or two in-state teams are placing in any given award category it gets a bit discouraging to the teams that you would like to see returning to the FTC program...and not getting dragged away by the new allure that VEX seems to be pushing in our state.
