I would say it really depends on your team.

Last year we attended a Week 5 (Ventura) and a Week 6 (San Diego), and the turnout was kind of exhausting. We were kind of lucky to have San Diego during Spring break, otherwise most of our students wouldn't have been able to attend.

What kind of affected us the most was the inability to assess our mistakes at Ventura, and improve for San Diego. Plus, we watched teams adapt to the game throughout the weeks without being able to really test our robot's application in real matches. We weren't unprepared for Ventura, but walking into a regional with prior experience on your robot is a great thing. Plus, when we did finally decide what improvements we wanted to make for San Diego, we had to really crunch to make them.

2015 was our first season doing back to back regional events, and I would heavily advise against it.
