Re: Attending Back-to-back Regionals
In 2014 we ran Weeks 2, 4, 5, 6, 7(DCMP) and 9 (CMP).
In 2015 we ran Weeks 1, 3, 4, 5, 7(DCMP) and 9 (CMP).
Overall the 3 or 4 weeks in a row can be extremely difficult for certain teams/situations. We're fortunate to use the District advantage of being able to compete Sat/Sun vs a more standard regional schedule.
One of the reasons I particularly like it aside from the benefit of lots of practice, tuning and opportunties- is it makes us feel like a sports team. I liken it to a baseball team having a tournament on 3 consecutive weekends, or a classic football schedule of a game a week.
It makes our competition season crazy, intense and draining- but a ton of fun and we love doing it.
