When MAR went districts, I thought that would be the case of our team. Two districts and that's it, regardless of our performance and an invitation to MAR cmp. The MAR grant system has been a godsend though. I'm not sure of how it works internally, but their goal is to get every team that qualifies for MAR CMP to MAR CMP through the "MAR wallet" (it even has a twitter account) and it works. I couldn't be more thankful.
Michigan's CMP is free for teams I hear, but it could be wrong.
My point here is there are ways around this issue if the district leaders look into it enough.
