Setup a system with progressively bigger "zones" or "regions" with events. Create 4 "Sections" (N/S/E/W?) each with several districts in it. You compete at district events, go to district champs, go to section/region champs, and then go to world champs. Live stream all world champs events for teams that don't qualify, and keep the cost at $0 to attend workshops/watch matches if you aren't actively competing.
A 600 team champs event is great, but I feel it may be too big -- especially when a good portion of the teams going to champs this year "qualified" though the waitlist, instead of through winning (or being a finalist, etc.).
