Remember that FIRST has little to do with putting on Regionals - it's volunteer work for the most part.

I can't imagine the cost of the projection system.
I do understand this. I am lucky to go to an event that puts some effort into this area of the event. But still FIRST has yet to help facilitate this part of the event when they could at least supply the basic equipment. Some events don't even have a webcast. And I imagine that this isn't always an internet problem. If it was they could still record it and put the matches onto the internet afterwards.
