Re: [FRC Blog] Frank Answers Friday: Championship Slots

Food for though, given the current HQ direction we probably aren't that many years away from a time where a teams ability or willingness to pay to attend the Championships could become the limiting factor.

In 2018 will ~40% of FRC teams be able to attend a Championship? If that is followed up with 3Champs, will 50%+ of the teams in FRC be able to afford the trip?

If we sit on this issue for a few years, it just might solve itself.
