: Shouldn't there be a rule that every team is guaranteed a local regional and teams wishing to attend more than one would be put on a waiting list.

Yes! All teams should be guaranteed a local competition. For teams who can afford to go to more than one, they should put down their top five or so choices. Then, after every team has gotten a spot (Dec 8), FIRST can fill in the remaining spaces, team by team, in the order they submitted their applications.

On the other hand, maybe this is unfair to veteran teams in some way?

Our team was also forced to choose New York City since we are a rookie team and did not secure enough funding until late in the registration period.
