This is sort of a continuation of Richard's
thread from last year.
This morning team registration broke the 1000 barrier.
That's 10% ahead of last year at this same time.
5 resurrected veteran teams, so far.
107 new teams too with Texas and Oklahoma leading the recruiting.
New teams are rookies as well as those not judged by FIRST to be true rookies, such as 2707, 2715, 2719, 2828, 2852, 2858, and 2860.

Looks like another solid growth year even with the economic (hence sponsorship) problems.

Doesn't count teams on waitlists for these events and there are a few registered teams that don't show up on the registered list yet.
No matter what the weight limit is, a large number of teams will *ALWAYS* have trouble making it. - Cory [more]
