Re: Which Sponsor has the Most Successful teams?
Looking up north, the Toronto District School Board and the efforts of Mr. Mark Breadner, a UFh and company cannot be overlooked. I am not sure of any other school board in any other region that has given support to as many teams as the TDSB. From my days as a student, I had heard that they paid for every team's initial entry fee into what was then the Canadian Regional. They have positions and chairs within their organization dedicated to FIRST and continue to actively support it with intiatives like the Innovation fund. If someone with a bit more information could clarify their exact position in relation to how teams operate and their expenses that would be great. I just know that everytime I walk into a Canadian regional, over 90% of the teams that are there have a TDSB and the familiar half apple logo attached to their robot.
