It wouldn't surprise me if there were fewer teams attending the Championships this year.

That being said - there is still a lot of time left and teams left on the waitlist. The teams that qualified this past weekend have until tomorrow to register and pay. Many of them probably haven't had a chance to complete the registration process. Once the teams that qualify during week 5 have registered I'm sure FIRST will send invitations to teams still on the waitlist to fill the remaining spots.
