Re: 2014 Predicted Event Calendar
I'm a little surprised by FIRST doubling up on QCMO/ONWA.
We all knew that with 7 Canadian regionals this year, one was likely to be doubled up, and the natural choice (due to geography) is Calgary with any one of the Ontario/Quebec regionals.
The 6 Ontario/Quebec regionals though, are all within a not completely ridiculous driving distance of one another. Seems to me the ideal distribution (both for maximizing choice for teams, maximizing utilization of field equipment, and minimizing border crossings for the field) would be for the 6 Ontario/Quebec regionals to be on different weeks, using the same field at all 6.
If I had to guess, I'd say they're having venue-schedule issues, which have lead to this less-than-ideal distribution.
