Somewhat off topic I would like to suggest the following....
F.I.S.
FIRST In the South
South Carolina:37
North Carolina:42
Georgia:49
Tennessee:38
West Virginia:4
Virginia:69
Kentucky:12
Total of 251 teams.
You could easily have 12 district events and 1 district championship and qualify far more teams. After a year or two of team growth you could break this large district into smaller ones potentially having one district for each state at some point.
Low registration fees for all, more matches for all, and lower travel costs for most.

Between those states, you already have approximately 10 regionals.
The sheer size of this district would downplay quite a few of the other logistical benefits (reduced travel, deeper penetration of involvement, maintainability, etc.) that the district model traditionally provides.
