Re: Texas FIRST teams doubling in 2 years
It's my understanding that it is not for the 2010 season.

Texas is big with a lot of potential. I think we'll see a 3rd regional in the near future, especially with this news. What we don't have are a lot of teams, including veteran teams, that understand the importance of networking, supporting each other, and working together. I think we saw that earlier this year when we were trying to put together an off season. James, thank you and 1477 for putting the scrimmage together so quickly when the other one(s) didn't work out. We need more of that. The veteran teams are going to have to pitch in with their experience, their know-how, and be willing to work to build a stronger network of support and communication in Texas. The potential to build something amazing involving all the areas of Texas, the teams, the sponsors, the FIRST leadership, the schools and communities - is incredible. This could include supporting or enhancing curriculums that are established or will be established in schools and communities.
