As mentioned a number of the Austrialian teams are what are considered paid forfeit. They register and pay so they can get a kit and then inform FIRST that they will not be attending. Hopefully FIRST down under can grow to the point that they can have their own regional and all of the teams can compete in an official FIRST event and have the opportunity to win a spot at CMP.
