You do have to do field setup the day prior to teams arriving so normally Thursday or Friday afternoon.

We have big enough high schools that can do it, we just have to get enough sites signed up.

One of the reasons for the increase in off-season events is to get schools used to hosting events before the move to districts. Spectrum is 100% behind districts and ready to host as soon as we make the move.

Districts don't have to be at schools, many of the large school districts in Texas have large event centers. We also have county arenas and things that often don't exist where current district models are held. Many of these sites aren't big enough for a regional but are the perfect size for a district event.
