Once APs are over your into the 3rd week of May, and starting to push into graduations (my school had graduation 2 days after APs ended). Which would really suck if some seniors couldn't attend champs because of that. And after graduation season is over your looking at final exams for non-seniors, and then a lot of teams aren't allowed by their school to have field trips over the summer.
FIRST really is stuck between a rock and a hard place. Its best option to expand the overall season* would be to have build season in the fall, then take a break over the holidays before starting events. But that obviously has plenty of drawbacks as well. My personal opinion is that we should wait things out a bit longer to see if any solutions come up, then if not then get rid of bag-and-tag and push week 1 up by 1-2 weeks.
