If a team declines their bid then FIRST Mid-Atlantic will try to notify the next highest ranked team as soon as they can. Those teams could decline too, so it takes a while to go down the list.

I believe that a team last year received their invitation on Thursday morning after practice matches had already started.
Thanks for the reply..it was very helpful and informative! As a team ranked 46th is this even something we should be worrying about?
