Re: Registration 2014
Does anyone know what happened to team 759 from the UK?

They competed every year from 2002-2013 at the NYC regional.

Re: Registration 2014
They have a website with contact information on it, why don't you contact them? I'm sure they have a specific reason why.

Re: Registration 2014
Team registration settled out at 2,710 teams this year playing 4230 times plus more District cmp and World cmp to add-in.
  • 2722 Regional slots taken
  • 482 MI District slots filled
  • 343 NE District slots accounted for
  • 329 PNW District slots used or being used
  • 234 MAR District slots occupied
Championship registration is now about half full from the winners of previous weeks.
Of course, the four district regions won't choose their allotment for another couple of weeks.

The District Championships are already showing a few teams qualified to register there.

I'm not in direct contact with them, but a mentor from our team says they decided to stop competing from lack of interest.

Yep, looks like interest and cost. It does appear that they still do competitive robotics though, so thats good!

It's good to know that they still exist in some form. It's a shame they stopped their FRC team this year, it would have been nice to have concentrated our small British contingent in NYC this year (now we're all on our own).

Unfortunately the reality is that the cost (in money, time and inconvenience) for non-North American teams is incredibly high.
