That same site says there are only 38 teams signed up for SVR and no more spots... weren't there more spots last year? In fact, I remember 48...

EDIT: Checking my scouting sheets, there were indeed 48 teams last year. Have 10 teams really been cut, or is the FIRST site mistaken?
The listed capacity is always less, and we always end up with more teams. FIRST holds back spots for local rookie teams that are not shown publicly. I would expect that as usual SVR ends up with 45-48 teams or so.
