I found this in the District Planning Guide
Quote:
DISTRICT PLAY
Only FRC teams within the geographically defined area are eligible to compete at District Events inside that geographically defined area. Teams within the geographically defined area may register for additional District Events within the geographically defined area only if capacity exists. Priority will be given to FRC teams in a geographically defined area to ensure all FRC teams within the geographically defined area have had the opportunity to register for two district events.
Currently, geographically defined area FRC teams will not be able to register for District Events in geographically defined District areas other than their own. District teams may still register for and participate in FRC Regional Events when Unrestricted Event Registration opens provided the District team has registered for their two District Events. Participation in FRC Regional Events may take place before, in between or after participation in the two required District Events.

Only teams in the geographic area can participate in the District, and a team in a District can go to a Regional only after registering for two events in their District.
