Re: Why Give Open Bids to the Championship?

There are teams who have qualified who have not gone because they have no money to go.
So even if they have a dominant robot it doesn't guarantee they will be there.

So I know that there are 3 ways to make it to the Championships: Win a Regional, win an Award (Chairmans/EI/Rookie), or get an open-lottery bid.
You forgot being a member of the FIRST Hall of Fame or a FIRST legacy team.
