Re: 2007 Waterloo Regional feedback

Good Day Everyone,

We Team 1219 went to Waetrloo this year. It was the best reagional i ever saw interms of less teams and more fun and more matches to play. Even though our results were surpurising this year because we lost some of the grade 12 students and our mentors and it was a student build robot. Apart from this more than 80%students were from grade 10 and there were 2 grade 11 and 2 from grade 12. so we were the senoir people staying late nights. and in addition ur mechanical team made up of grade 10 students had no idea about how everything works and their pros and cons. In total we had 40-45 students last year and 15-20 students this year.Interms of matches, I would say FIRST needs to work on their algorithim. I saw a team playing with 1114 5times and some teams playing against them 5 teams.So my point is a team should get to play most of the teams in the 11 alloted matches.
Our team social was also good. Although we never participated in vex Competetion. We had dinner and made some new good friends.
I hope to come back next year for Waterloo 2008.
So i hope next year we Have a Good season since its gonna be my last year.

Robots Might Lose But Teams Never Do
