Time to get an official thread going for this new and potentially fantastic regional. Earlier discussions can be found here.
As of today FIRST is showing 29 registered and 15 slots open for anyone wanting to join us week 1 in Lubbock, Texas.
- 6 rookies (so far)
- 8 different States plus Mexico are represented
- 10 of the 29 teams have won a regional or been finalists in the last 3 years.
- 8 of the 29 teams have won a technical award for their robot in the last 3 years. (Engineering Excellence, Industrial Design, Innovation in Control, Creativity)
- 5 teams have been awarded a Regional Chairman's, or Engineering Inspiration award in the last 3 years, or are a World Chairman's Award Winner.
- 1 team is a defending World Champion
Being a new regional what can people tell me about :
...the venue.
