The conditions?
--The earlier winners have to travel one week later. If any one of them can't do so, the plan falls apart. That means this is probably a non-starter.
--Vary which event is the "earlier" event. This might be tricky, but necessary to prevent one being viewed as "easier" or what-not.
--There can only be two championship events for this--beyond that, it gets tricky.

This could've been so much easier if the back to back championship events were in the same city. Couldnt FIRST have found a city that offered them 2 weeks instead of 1 week 2 venues, back to back? Save on the resources needed to put on an event as well.
