In FRC, paying their $5000 registration fee.

I'm not really interested in labeling teams as a "True FIRST Team" because they live up someone's esoteric definition. Each team has the right to run their team in the manner they see fit. If this means they don't make an effort for certain awards or don't support other FIRST programs, who are we to judge them?

"Enthusiasm is one of the most powerful engines of success. When you do a thing, do it with all your might. Put your whole soul into it. Stamp it with your own personality. Be active, be energetic, be enthusiastic and faithful and you will accomplish your object. Nothing great was ever achieved without enthusiasm" -- R.W. Emerson
