Michael,
No worries!

Like you I am learning more myself and I do appreciate you sharing how your team is operating. It is giving me some fresh ideas of my own which we all need.
I know that many teams sponsor local workshops etc. for coaches but have not been able to personally attend one. What would be really nice is if FIRST in Texas could host a statewide webinar or conference for all the team coaches/mentors in which we could discuss the logistics of moving to a district model and UIL.
...Or maybe

a forum on the FIRST in Texas website for us to voice concerns and ask questions. I think it might open all of
our eyes to the work that has to be put in on the part of the volunteers and regional directors when planning a regional let alone planning multiple district events and a state championship. And maybe it would open
their eyes to the potential issues many of our teams may face that they have not yet considered.
