Money is not a factor, experiencing a FIRST Championship event is priceless.
I'm really sorry your team doesn't find it necessary to go. That's the only persuading thing I can say...
I feel lucky. The students on our team have never had to pay our own way. We get all of our money through a golf tournament. We go out and get sponsers for the tounament and keep a portion of what we earn (usually $10 for every $100 we earn).
