Re: ISRAEL REGIONAL OFFICAL!!!

[quote=Kevin Sevcik]

Really, though, I'm bothered by this because it's a small regional in an area with no current teams. So FIRST is funding teams in Israel, plus an expensive regional for said teams plus a very small number of other teams. Meanwhile, back at the ranch, FIRST has raised the first regional entry fee by 20%, discouraging rookie and poorer teams here in the States. One can only wonder how FIRST can afford this if they've already had to raise prices to break even already.

Who ever said FIRST is funding teams in Israel?
