Starting a new team is not easy at all as I know from experience. I think that it is fair for FIRST to try to get rookie teams spots in regionals. Some of the teams on the waiting list may be trying to register for a second or third regional so I can understand that FIRST gives some of these spots to rookie teams that have a hard time getting their act together. There are a lot of things to consider when starting a team that you may not have thought of so it's not as easy as just getting a mentor even though that does help. A lot of rookies also do not even know how to go about getting a mentor or help to organize themselves. Getting started is really the hardest part of this and I agree that they should be given a little slack.
