Re: What states fund robotics
I don't think Minnesota funds any teams, although our involvement with the MSHSL does come with benefits - many schools now treat FIRST on par with other sports and activities when it comes to recognition, teacher stipends, and logistical support through the athletics/activities director. But that is on a school/district basis, not state wide.
And for declaring robotics a sport, check out Connecticut, Arizona, Missouri, and Texas. They have all been a part of the conference session on that topic in the past year or two.
