This also leads me to question why the MAR area needs the district system. This may be a topic for another thread, and has probably been beaten to death already; but seeing that there are 110 team in MAR, with 55 making it to MAR championships (and I don't recall there being that much growth in rookie teams this past year), why not do another regional into the pot that used to be there already?

$ee, there are plenty of rea$on$ a$ to why the di$trict $y$tem i$ better for the MAR region.
Also more play/many (myself included) love that a district system drastically "seasonizes" FIRST.
