This is one of the exact reasons why we started the "FIRST Championship Conference" last year. Schools send their FFA, VICA, and other organizations to national conferences, so this would be the same for a non-competing FIRST team. Attending these workshop sessions may justify school administrators to allow you to attend the Championships.
