Do any schools recognize their FIRST teams as sports?

Let the team grow, let them fail, let them learn and always be ready to lend a helping hand. I think that's the best way to help rookie teams. - Justin Montois [more]

Kit Gerhart has a reputation beyond repute

Could it be that part of the lack of recognition is because school administrators and/or school boards don't want to be seen as "supporting" the corporate sponsors that most of our teams have? I don't know if this is a factor, but I think it might be in some cases.

The views I express here are mine, and mine alone, not those of my team, FIRST, or my previous teams.
