**FIRST EMAIL**/2008 FRC Connecticut "Double Regional"

Greetings Teams!

As FIRST continues to grow we are exploring ways to better accommodate increased numbers of teams. To that end we are planning to use the 2008 FRC Connecticut Regional as a prototype for a "Double Regional". The "Double Regional" will essentially be two FRC Regionals, conducted in two halls under the same roof, during the same weekend (3/13 - 3/15). This event structure allows FIRST to accommodate more teams while still providing those teams with the same award opportunities that would be provided at a single, regional competition.

Teams who register for the 2008 FRC Connecticut Regional would be randomly selected to participate at one of the two Regional Events. Both of the Regional Events would qualify for the 2008 Championship and all FRC Regional awards.

We encourage teams that have an interest in playing at the 2008 FRC Connecticut Regional to register now so that we can plan for a "Double Regional". Teams will be notified in mid-November when there is a final decision made as to whether or not FIRST will be conducting the 2008 FRC Connecticut Regional as a single or double event.

Go Teams!
