Rookie Teams
As far as i know, there will only be 26 rookie teams eligible for the Championship Event this year. These 26 teams will be the Rookie-All Stars.
If you are a Rookie team, you at basically at Tier 0.
Basically you don't get a head of the line pass for being a rookie, when you become a rookie you get to stand at the end of the line, and your year counter starts.
It's also good to keep in perspective, just because FIRST is growing doesn't mean every team can afford or want to goto the championship.
With more regional competitions, it may be of more value to a team to do 2 regionals instead of 1 regional and the championship.
Keep in mind that the championship registration did not fill out immediately last year even though hundreds of odd teams qualified.
