Many companies forbid funding to school based organizations. Apple and NVidia are good examples. In order for FIRST to expand, companies need to expand funding, and teams can't do that. Dean, Woodie, Lavery, and others will open funding for FIRST, not teams.
Plus, in VA, we have had a surge of growth to the point of breaking. Every school wants a team now, yet, companies are cutting costs and we are loosing sponsors. We might loose one sponsor this year, and I know that 422 has already lost a few.
