Re: max no.of teams?

When events get "too big", but you still want to bring everyone together you can go to two playing fields (like some of the 70+ team GTR events did) if you have the room, or you can run two divisions.

We did that at the 54-team BC VEX championships this year, running an "A" division for the more competitive teams and a "B" division for the those who hadn't been having as much success. That model might not work well for FRC, as the teams had had four previous competitions over four months to figure out who was "A" and "B", but it worked great for us. The B division champions were happier than the A division champs because it was their first time getting to "go all the way".
