At Beantown Blitz, Kim was going around surveying people about the district championship, and it included ranking those three locations, as well ranking a bunch of other aspects of the event (number of matches, number of teams, only best teams, as many teams as possible, etc).

I think that with WPI's new athletic center they can hold many more teams (BattleCry this year had 54 teams), although I have no idea how scheduling 2-3 events would happen. This year, Boston had 51 teams, and CT had 56, so all three of those would appear to be able to house that size of an event.
