you dont get it. FIRST is everyone. Your sponser is as much a part of FIRST as the people at the headquarters in Manchester.
If there is a problem with the scoring system get some people down by the judges and volunteer to keep track of the scores manually.
FIRST is not a company. Its a non-profit organization. Everyone who is involved in it (including your sponsor company) IS FIRST.
Sponsors dont care about plastic trophies- they care about the students as individuals - they care about what career you choose to persue.
If they wanted fame and glory and attention, they would be sponsoring a NASCAR team instead of a FIRST team.
