I suppose it would be ideal if the 3rd district teams were a bit more spread out between events, however I imagine there isn't much the FiM staff could do about that as the actual number of teams in the state didn't seem to be finalized until well after initial registration, by which time most teams had already been sorted into events and rearranging them to spread out the 3rd event spaces would have been logistically challenging.

Alot of this happened because Bedford was added so late. Also there are teams at Troy and Livonia who are competing at their 3rd district..
