Re: 2007 Outside NA Regionals
That's definitely true. Even the week or two (the UK teams stayed like 2 or 3 weeks in Annapolis) does not really immerse the teams in the competition. I'm just leaving open the possibility. It hasn't happened. But then again, if teams could come here from the UK and stay here for like a week or so (note: the longest part of the trip, IMO, from Maryland or Texas in that matter to Israel is that flight across the Atlantic.) It's very doable, if not now, sometime in the future as FIRST itself grows.

Keep in mind the UK teams travel like 4000+ miles to get to the US or Canada for regional action while they themselves don't have a regional back in their home country.
