New Team From Australia!!!

Koko Ed · #1 04-12-2004, 08:52

The coolest thing this season is the amount of foreign teams that have joined FIRST. Like the French team that is going to Chicago. The sudden explosion of Brazilian teams (6 of them going to New Jersey) the continued strong growth of teams in Canada (including teams outside of Ontario). A new team in England ( at Chesepeak) and a team in Ecuador. FIRST has truly become an international sensation.

This is so cool! I'm excited now, though I don't even know this team nor are they coming anywhere close to Maryland. But welcome, Team 1681! =)

So basicly only Africa and Antarctica don't have teams now...

That's Asia? I've always considered Isreal closer to Africa than Asia.

very true, yesterday I learned that those cigarette lighters that plug into the car heat up very very fast.

First off, welcome to FIRST australia! Secondly, i think they are just trying to trump the British and Brazilian teams for furthest distance traveled for a high school field trip.

Good luck in Ohio

Welcome to all the international rookie teams from Australia, Israel, France, England, Mexico, Brazil, and Ecuador! (sorry if I missed anyone) And of course welcome to all the new Canadian and American teams, too! Hoping that we'll have all 50 states covered soon and further expansion outside North America in the near future.

i don't mean to rain on ya'lls parade, but as Koko Ed pointed out a few posts before you, 1681 (from aus.) and 1639 (from france) are no longer registered for any regionals.
