Re: max no.of teams?

1075 has competed in all sizes of events, not including championship. Waterloo is a small event (30 teams this year). This is mostly a function of the space to house them. The pits are small, you could maybe fit 40 teams MAX. GTR this year was a mid-size event at 52 teams. This is mostly a function of funding and active teams in the area. In past years, GTR has seen as many as (IIRC) 84 teams, playing 2 fields, and a 12 alliance elimination bracket.

The small events are intense as IKE says. 30 teams means a 5 match average spacing, some as short as 2 matches (on, off, on). This is more than a little insane if you have to change your bumper color, and fix something that broke.

Bigger events are more relaxed, but you have to be at the top of your game if you want to make elims.
