How about if they had a new url like usfirstfrc.org that lead you straight to the FRC page because when I'm trying to explain to people how to navigate the website they have the hardest time understanding how to get from the home page to the FRC page.

Totally just blew my mind, lol

I figured something like that excised, I'll have to remember to tell people that when I direct them to the FIRST website.

I want to see a searchable map of all teams, organized by competition (FLL, FTC, FRC), on usfirst.org somewhere. It wouldn't be the hardest thing in the world to do, and it could help people who are interested in helping teams find some in their area to work with.

All the teams could register at their address on TIMS (I don't think that's required) then they could just import that data into points in a Google Maps application on their website. Right?

The fact that teams have been able to come up with better methods of finding other teams than the umbrella organization for the competition shows how capable the students and mentors are, but how apprehensive FIRST is.
