Re: Michigan, be honest, how is the district model?

I like the idea. I would have suggested the very same policy. It seems to me that no matter where a team competes, it should be able to accumulate points towards its own regional championship. This way, teams would compete against the best of the best teams in their own region to qualify for championship, but would also have the opportunity to compete against whoever they wish during the regular season events, traveling if they so chose or staying local if that was their preference.
