Re: New York Districts?

I know New York is split geographically a little more compared to most regions but minus a few teams who travel for the sake of traveling teams in districts for the most part attend events closest to them. We rarely play with teams from Rhode Island or Connecticut until we go to the District Championship which is a 4+ hour drive for some teams to attend. I know many teams in Michigan and Washington/Oregon who drive further to get to their District Championship.

Teams will intermingle if the schedule works better, availability for a third or fourth play, or some teams really like to travel like we have up here.
I guess I was going off of the assumption the most other regions distribution is a little more continuous than New York. So teams from New Hampshire night not play with teams from Rhode Island, but teams from New Hampshire might play with some teams from Massachusetts, who play with some teams from Connecticut, who play with some teams from Rhode Island. There's no clear line, and the distribution is a little more continuous.

For New York, there is an extremely clear line, and it would probably become even more clear for districts.
