Split Champs assignment

[Tim Sharp]

Just got an email from FIRST with the Championship update. Looks like a NE/ SW split.

That only links to the map, this gives more information.

So, as a Kansas team, and Missouri resident, I'm not sure how I feel.

Looks like you'll be in St Louis next year and Houston in 2018.

Let's just get one megathread going:

I find it interesting that each ChampionSplit will have 400 FRC teams (as opposed to this year's 600) but the full current amount of other program teams (60 FllJr, 108 FLL, and 128 FTC). FIRST wasn't kidding or exaggerating this time when they said they were going to expand the other programs too.

While this post does not exactly discuss the same issue as the other posts in this thread (of which I will not reveal my opinion on—there has been some great discussion, but I do not have much to contribute), I would like to note something interesting.

If you look at Northern Canada on the map, at the Northwest Territories (NT), you'll note that the part of it belonging to the islands are attending St Louis/Detroit, while the mainland is attending Houston. It's just interesting that they followed geographical boundaries, rather than political ones on this. Does anyone have any insight on it? Does it stem from the way FTC teams are assigned to the FTC Super Regionals? Even though there are no FIRST teams from there (I checked - https://my.usfirst.org/myarea/index....ge=searchform).

It's just wierd. (An oversight maybe?) Hmm.
