I've been lurking on this thread since the start but here's my first comment in it so far:

If something like this had to be done, why not give district teams the option of attending a Regional OR their District Championships, instead of banning them from traveling at all? (If they don't attend their District championships, they won't qualify for World Champs through their district system)
