Even though FIRST has decided that 2828 will not be a rookie this year, I applaud FIRSTs efforts here to ensure an even playing field.

And welcome back to all the teams that are renewing their FIRST efforts. Best of luck to all.

Did they give you a "recycled" team number yet?

No, and I doubt they will.

FIRST has ruled that we are a "new" team but not a "Rookie" team.

And Team number 2828 seems like a cool number to have!

Same thing happened to 1025 last year. We were a new team - not a revival of a previous team - but not a rookie. We were originally given a rookie number, but then were given a number in the same series as the team many of our members had previously been on.

Well I hope they don't give us another number. I like the symmetry of 2828
