Re: Super Regional
I don't think a super regional win is better than any other win. What about a small great lakes regional with loads of hard and very good teams? Quality over quantity people.

Re: Super Regional

Re: Super Regional
The great thing about the GTR, other than how well it is run and the number of teams, is the mix of experience in the teams. With so many young teams paired with some great veterans (33, 48, 188, 639, 781) there is a good chance a young team will bring home the gold again - (610, 781 and 865 in '02, 1088 in '03, and 1112 in '04)

Re: Super Regional
Is the GTA Regional still considered a "SuperRegional" this year? Also, I think that winning a SuperRegional is more prestigious just because there are so many other teams there. Not only are there young teams, there are also seasoned veterans, which makes for awesome matches and alliances.

We would love to have your team come. We could compare buttons.

due to lack of interest my team has decided to not give out buttons this year... so I'll be a little tight on handing out buttons this year

Our team has give aways but not buttons. I was suggesting comparing buttons. I have a few myself. At the end of last season my vest weighed just under 10 lbs.

Re: Super Regional
The regional venue and crew have built up a reputation for being the best FIRST has to offer, and yes, it is a little bit more challenging to win a super-regional, but to me the value of any regional win is equal.
