Yes, each region is given a number of qualifying spots for Championship proportional to their representation within the overall team count. From there each region gets to choose how to allocate spots based on the guidelines set forth by FIRST. As such if a team decides to give out the maximum number of spots within a given criteria, it would then reduce the number of spots available via qualification by points.
