2011 Alamo - Inaugural Event

[Andrew Schuetze]

I want to welcome teams coming to the inaugural FRC Regional here in San Antonio, Texas. The event will be in our historic downtown in the Herny B. Gonzales Convention Center with access to the famous River Walk. There are plenty of affordable hotels downtown and the venue is walking distance to the River Center Mall with the requisite food court.

Of the currently registered teams, there is a decent mix of rookie, young and veteran teams. If a few more vets move off the waitlist that mix will get just a bit better.

19 Rookie Teams
8 Sophomore Teams
18 3rd year Veterans
15 Multi-year Veterans
60 Total Team Count



It is just amazing the effort that has been put forth by many volunteers and funds from many new sponsors to take Texas from something around 35 teams and one event four years ago to the current 145 and now three events. San Antonio itself has gone from just 3 teams for about 7 years to now 16 this year.

Looking forward to having a great dual event with a FTC Championship on Thursday and FRC match play on Friday and Saturday.
