If team 100 earns any points during the 2003 season, they count towards qualification for the 2004 season. The points are, in essence, redundant at that point because even numbered teams are offered "first come/first served" that year.
Joel, Elgin, and others.....

About the points being "redundant"....keep in mind, FIRST has NEVER said anything about qualifying criteria for beyond the 2003 season. They committed to having odd/even registration last year and this year so that it was fair to all teams. By 2004, there will be over 1000 teams and 25-30 Regionals, so it is safe to assume there will be some change in the National Format and/or how a team qualifies after the 2003 season is over. My guess is that you can still assume there will be something similar to the 5 points from the previous year and also the current year qualifying system. However, I don't think any team should assume the odd/even system will exist as is in 2004. It may, or it may not, I just wouldn't want any new teams to get the wrong idea from these threads and assume even teams can register in 2004. I don't think FIRST or teams will have a clear idea of qualifying beyond this year until the Team Forum after the 2003 season is over.

Looking forward to another great year for FIRST in 2003,

Jason
