Re: Districts vs. Traditional Debate 8/16 830pm EST
I personally think both systems work, BUT the mixed system we have is broken. Teams in the regional areas cant attend district events, but teams in districts can attend regionals. This creates major issues with regional teams getting closed out of events. To make matters worse, some of these district teams are attending four or more events and regional teams have trouble getting into two.

I would like to see at least one of the following implemented.

1) District teams can not register for regional events. They can be placed on a standby list and are notified two weeks before the event if there is room. Regional waiting list takes priority over the District standby list.

2) Limit of three season events for all teams. (this levels the playing field for poorly funded teams that cant afford more than one event)
