Welcome back! You're still in New Hampshire, right? Well, do you remember the district system that Michigan had back when you were in high school? Well starting in the 2014 season for New England...
I would call this the biggest change. Districts are now in Michigan, MAR (Mid-Atlantic Robotics, comprising of New Jersey, Delaware, and PA east of Harrisburg), the Pacific Northwest, and New England (Connecticut, Rhode Island, Massachusetts, Vermont, Maine and New Hampshire). Here is
the new NE FIRST website.
To give a very brief overview: Your team will compete at a number of district events, which are basically mini-regionals with fewer teams, but each team gets more matches (for the past two years in MAR, each team got 12 qualification matches at each district)! At each event, you will accumulate ranking points based on awards won, qualification match results, and eliminations finish. Only the points earned at your first two district events will count. After the district events, a certain number of the highest ranked teams will be invited to compete at your district system's regional championship, where the ranking points you earn are tripled. From the regional championship, the winners on the field, as well as a certain number of award winners, along with a certain number of the top ranked teams in the district (ranked via the total amount of ranking points accumulated in the district system throughout the season) will move on to the FRC World Championships in St. Louis.
It seems as though 3467 is currently registered for the NE Districts at the University of New Hampshire and at Northeastern University. If you advance to your district system's regional championship, that will be at Boston University, which I believe is the same location for the old Boston Regional.
(Did I miss anything?)
District teams can still go to actual regionals and attempt to advance to the World Championships the traditional ways, but they won't earn any points for their district system there. However, teams outside the district system cannot play in districts. 3467 is not currently signed up for a regional.
