This increased the travel time for all but 4-5 teams, and actually cost more teams money, since there were less teams in the local area. You really do want the district championship in the most densely populated area of the district. That way if there are teams that need help raising money, its less teams, which should be easier to find money for. Ideally, we would have our championship in Seattle, but the venues in Seattle are not ideal for a championship, and people love the venue we have here in Portland.

Couldn't you just have 2 District Championships?
