Re: Registration 2010

A balance point of sorts has been reached:
230 new teams
vs
230 teams missing from last season
One will continue to decrease while the other increases.
It looks like we might break 1800 total teams this season.

We've surpassed 1994 in net number of teams gained (20) - all resurrected vets since the new and missing teams balance each other out. Of course, back then that represented a 76% increase, while for 2010 that's a 1.2% increase.

Team 121 has registered.

Of the lower number teams we are still missing:
  • 1997 rookie
    • 59 Miami, FL
  • 1998 rookie
    • 104 West Chester, PA
  • 1999 rookie
    • 284 Dimock, PA
  • 2000 rookies
    • 405 Richmond, VA
    • 406 Detroit, MI
  • 2001 rookies
    • 496 Port Jefferson, NY
    • 500 New London, CT
    • 549 Leominster, MA
    • 615 Washington, DC
    • 660 Round Rock, TX
    • 670 Cupertino, CA
There are 5 regionals that are only a team or two away from filling their initial capacity: Bayou, Chesapeake, Colorado, Hawaii, and Vegas
