Re: Improving the District Experience

I think one of the difficult parts of transitioning to a district system is having a large enough base of teams that qualifying for the district championship is a challenge.

Based off of the FIRST in Georgia website, there are 66+ FRC teams, which is getting to the critical mass point needed. Making a championship harder to qualify for may seem like it would be counterproductive, but it can really drive teams to innovate both in build and strategy.
