Wow... heated debate here.

Well, for veteren teams, I think it is ok but for rookie teams, I think it is bad news. Many rookie teams have barely the budget to build a robot and compete it in the regionals. Asking them for an extra $75 per person is a little hefty I think.

For example, our team has been helping a rookie team this year and they can only make it into the regionals because they don't have the money. Many teams pick a non-Disney package because it is cheaper. If you have to pay $75 extra per person, it defeats the purpose.

Anyways, I don't think it is a great idea. Hopefully, next year, FIRST will have enough sponsors to cover this cost.
