My point was for WI NOT to go to the District model. Then, with states around WI going to District, teams could choose if and which they wanted to join.

In some respects, there are advantages to having a Regional surrounded by Districts. If MN, IL, and MI all were Districts, WI would be a convenient place for teams to come for a Regional. Also, Milwaukee and Chicago get a few international teams. If IL and WI went to Districts, then we would loose those international teams.

Also in all my talks in St Louis not a single person thought it was a good idea to go districts with multiple states.
WI particular, or in general? If general, there are already multi-state districts:
New England, Pacific North West, Chesapeake, Mid Atlantic.

Any reason for WI and IL not to form one Midwest District? Most of the IL and WI teams are near Milwaukee and Chicago. District Champs could alternate between Milwaukee and Chicago.
