All the FRC Teams That Ever Were

[waialua359]

Now that makes sense.
Its just that when I read nos. became permanent in 1998, it got confusing.
It actually should be the 1999 season then, and maybe the decision to do this was in 1998, at the beginning of the school year?

Actually, it's even better... Numbers were originally assigned by primary sponsor. So when a primary sponsor changed names, the team changed numbers. Annoying... But the team name didn't change, so we were still recognizable. Afterwards, it changed to registration order, if you were a rookie.

The 82/330 number change came right before the '99 season. 82 competed in Ladder Logic, the last of the pre-alliance games. 330 has competed in every game since.

You have Team 144 listed as "Cincinnati, OH; Procter & Gamble Company & Northwest High School Career Center"

In 1994, they were in Cincinnati, OH, with Walnut Hills HS. Later (not sure when, but not in 1995) they moved to Colerain Township, OH and Northwest High School.

www.firstwiki.net has a list of teams, as does www.thebluealliance.net; it would be great if, once completed, your data could be used to update both of those sites.

team 1918 isn't just Fremont MI. anymore its all of Newaygo county

Team 75 was originally Team 56 in 1996 and Team 105 in 1997 before becoming Team 75 in 1998. They are located in Hillsborough, NJ.

They switched schools from Walnut Hills to Northwest in 1998
But they didn't change their declared location from Cincinnati to Colerain Township until 2002 (sponsor location?)

Team 482 took over at Walnut Hills HS but only for 2000.

We got our present day permanent team numbers for the 1998 season, so they began assigning them during registration in the Fall of 1997.

Currently, 68 is officially Oakland County Schools, and we only have students from 2 schools, Holly and Brandon. (10 from Holly, 2 from Brandon)

looks right now like we are going to be moving to Brandon High next year because our building is being shut down by the end of June...

team 451 is not Northview anymore, its Dana Corporation & Sylvania City Schools (not sure if it is just Dana or Dana Holding however, we moved from the same location as 279)

[lady lighting]

This is really Cool! I cant hink of anyother ones from off the top of my head but good job so far!

[ShotgunNinja]

Looks like someone's done Dean's homework...

[Hawiian Cadder]

that is an awesome list, although team 159 has a sponsorship with AMD and Metal Distributors now instead of with NASA. i think we have a list like this with numbers for all the teams that existed before 1997 then got a permanent number.

Glad you survived your first year as Regional Director.
We're glad you found the history useful and somewhat surprised you even found it. There's quite a ton of information sources to consume your first year. As you can tell we like to preserve history that was disappearing. Anything you learn about the interrelationship of Pittsburgh teams that can be added to this record would be appreciated in return. It doesn't have to be old. It can be about 201o or 2011 teams. This is only what we've collected so far...

The entry you happened to look at lists your original team sponsors.
You'll find all past and current sponsors listed by year on the "Every Year of Every Team" tab.
Right now your sponsors are listed as:
AMD/Agilent Technologies, Inc./LSI Logic & Poudre High School

Your team's Main Contact needs to update your sponsor list on the FIRST TIMS (Team Information Management System) with changes.

Thank you for sharing this, I think it is really interesting to read through.

A thought on:

It relates current teams with other numbers they have had in the past, teams they have split off from/to, or combined with, what have you.

I think that the column on linked teams is what many will be most interested to see and I think that differentiating between teams "split into" or "old team" would be a great place to start. It may cause a lot of confusion to do otherwise (I do realize this is a work in progress, just sharing my thoughts). For example, I wouldn't say that team 4 was ever team 22's past team number. As Eric pointed out 22 is the "parent" and a way to distinguish parent-child / former team # would be a great revision.

Something else I would like to suggest is a way to make it so you know which team numbers were reassigned. i.e. Team 4 was assigned the number in 2006, and something some people aware of this might want to know is whether or not there was a team with that number before(Sorry for using team 4 as a constant example but its the only one I'm completely knowledgeable about)?

Mark, I love this type of information that you put together, it has influenced me to do a lot of different things in the past few months. Thank you.
