Simply not correct. 335 teams in 2001, 288 in 2002. Only about a 15% reduction and still bigger than all National Championships prior to 2001.

Sorry, what I wanted to say was they cut the number of teams
that could openly register for the nationals in half (335 / 2 = 167.5).
As for being bigger than all National Chapmionships, this is also true, but FIRST competitions should be getting bigger not smaller.
