Re: Foreign Regionals

thats a very good point. unforunately, rather unlike FIRST competition (notice I didnt say build seasons ) politics and exteunating circumstances can leave everything to chance, which no school board is willing to take. A lot of Canadian school boards barred teams from going in 2003, I remember we didnt know if we would be going to west michigan until after the Canadian Regional (partly with our finish there) which was the next weekend!

A regional in mexico would make the most sense after Brazil (which supposedly isnt happening). It would be awesome if the FRC could be become as international as Lego League though =). think the Atlanta championships this year and all the anthems!
