registration price

Hey guys,
I was wondering if anybody knows what the registration fee/price for the championships this year is? Our coach isn't in right now, and our team are curious. Anybody find this information? Thanks,
Ken

I seem to recall it being $5000. Once the FIRST page on the Championships loads, I'll be able to confirm that.

I see..that's what we've been hearing, but I wanted to confim. That is a lot of money

All right, I give up. It's not out in the open in the normal places you'd look on the FIRST site.

However, it's been $6K initial registration (now $5K for veterans and more for rookies), $4K per additional regional, and $5K Championship for several years now.

Note that this is just registration; the conferences and your travel, lodging, aquarium fun, and food are not included. Should you book in a FIRST hotel, the Finale party is included, otherwise it's $45/person. (Also note: The odds of being there when it starts are zero, unless something REALLY changes or you leave early...)

Also note, the odds of getting to it AT ALL are virtually zero if you make it to compete on Einstein.
