Why does the Kettering event #2 say it has 7 registered teams and no open spots? Kettering event #1 has 5 open spots so maybe they are waiting to see if a second event is needed?

When I went to register at noon, it was already waitlisted.

Kettering 2 is waitlisted because first in Michigan needs to make sure that teams from Kettering 1 have room to move to Kettering 2 because they need to be guaranteed their home event.

Re: Registration 2016

Maybe we could have a Kettering East and a Kettering West event with the field moved from one end of the rec to the other. /s

It's not that easy to move water.

Nonsense. Moving water is easy. The ocean does it, rivers do it, creeks do it, coolant pumps in cars do it, restaurants do it, single-celled lifeforms do it. The tricky bit is keeping building foundations and robot electrical systems intact while moving large quantities of water in a short period of time. ;->

Re: Registration 2016

So GA just moved to districts and we're guaranteed 2 events but 2 of the events are full and the other 2 are on the same weekend...
We are only registered for one event because of the situation described above.
Will we still get 2 events or are we stuck with 1?

I recommend contacting your local regional director (see http://www.usfirst.org/regional-contacts) - there may be spots held back at one or both of the other events. They can help you get in to one of them.

I just checked on this. The two Minneapolis regionals each seem to have 1 spot held back and the Duluth regionals each have about 15 spots available. So there's not enough space in Minnesota for the 37 Minnesota teams that did two regionals last year though there is plenty of space left in Iowa.

I wonder how many of the 200+ Minnesota teams will try for 2 regionals this year.

There are reserved spots for the events. Contact your local Senior Mentor and they'll check where you are on the list and give you an idea of the likelihood of you making it into the event you are on the waitlist for.

I'm certain that the people in charge will do everything possible to ensure that all teams get two events.

We're trying for 2 this year and have already got into North Star. Are the Duluth spots reserved for rookies or are they going to be available come registration?

I'm going to go out on a limb and predict that Iowa is going to fill up pretty quickly
