Most website designers carefully consider backward-compatibility to support people who collect data of your site to increase web traffic. I hope FIRST web design can at least put up a link to the old interface.

I feel like I'm clicking way too much to find information. I like how the FTC, FLL and FRC are all easily searchable now but I don't feel like searching for an FTC team and FRC team on one page.

It seems to me FIRST web design needs to look at TBA or Google's one box search solution.
Put your team #, regional or other info in one search box.
Google Adsense has everything built in for searching and FIRST could
make money of the advertisements (and help reduce team registration fees! ) .


NO MAPS ?
There is no Google Map on the new interface ? (or maybe I can't find it)
