Re: Future First Championship News

As we try to improve the quality of our team, we spend a lot of time looking at the teams who have built effective programs, and what makes them tick. And a common trend, perhaps above all others, is a relentless pursuit of being the best in the world. It builds dominant, inspiring robots, and it builds quality experiences for students.

Not exactly thrilled that the motivation that drives the programs which move FIRST forward has been taken down a couple notches.

Whatever happened to that "super regional" model which was floating around for a while? I imagined that these events would rise to a prestige and experience quality level near that of the championship, while maintaining a central goal to work towards?
