Re: New FIRST competition structure in Michigan
To answer a few questions based on the info I have (not the official word, by any means):
There will be 7 district events and 1 state championship.
Each district event will have approximately 35-40 team capacity for 2009.
Each district event will have similar audio/visual set up to the 2008 Kettering Rookie event, which lowers the cost of each event.
$5000 covers FRC registration, KOP, and two district event entries.
$4000 for Michigan State Championship entry, which will be the regular FRC Regional Event A/V set up. The MI State Championship will be held at Eastern Michigan University in 2009.
Michigan teams wishing to attend out of state regionals will pay the usual fee for second regional attendance.
