It would require longer hours for the volunteers, but I don't think there is a single team that would rather cut half of practice thursday vs staying later on Friday.

There might be other considerations like OT for venue staff. Maybe FIRST has looked into it and deemed it undo able. It would be nice if it was possible though.
True, but I think you hit the nail on the head when you talked about the venue staff. I know for a fact that we need to be out of our venue by a certain time due to contractual considerations. I do not know if the contract could be altered or how much it would cost, but right off hand, I would think that it would not be reasonable to extend the day. I am sure, however, that the volunteers would gladly do it.
