Part of FIRST's plan to push for an area to go to districts?

I completely agree however. How we could implement it fairly I'm unsure of (for example, who gets the second semi-finalist wildcard, the other alliance captain or the first pick of the higher seeded alliance?), but there should be a way to ensure that each regional send as many deserving teams as it can to championship.

Congrats to 1241, 610, and 3560 on an incredible run through the tournament. You executed your strategy incredibly well, and the blue banners are more than deserved.

2056 set a record that will be never broken. Congratulations on a decade of pure excellence. Good luck at Windsor next week!
