That would be great. If we were to switch for the 2018 season, I would assume around 50-60 teams, so we would likely have 3 or 4 events. I think one or two Milwaukee events, a La Crosse event, and a Fox Valley event would be a good way to split everything up. A DCMP in Milwaukee would be nice for the teams there.

I'm a bit worried that a lot of WI teams currently only do one event. This year 22 of WI's 48 teams are only attending one Regional. Several more are doing just that and Champs. Adding another 2 events in between to make it to Champs seems like a lot to ask for teams with less funding, but the state grants should help alleviate some of that. And hey, other regions have solved all of these problems already.
