Re: All local regionals the same weekend?
We were extremely disappointed to see this too. We really enjoyed Rocket City last year; we got to see teams we wouldn't normally see, and the social at the Rocket Center was very, very cool. Since it's the same weekend as our home regional, it leaves us in a significant bind. We also hoped there would have been more coordination between regional directors, and we were assuming Smoky Mountains would fall on the same weekend it usually has (last week of March).
This leaves us limited to Palmetto (very early for us which we are not accustomed to), Rock City (many other East TN teams go, but 7hrs away), or Queen City (which frankly could be on the same weekend again as these).
I'd agree that we're feeling extremely limited in this area of the country and something needs to be done about it soon, by at least next season. I'm especially worried that more states around us with more organized management will move to districts and that Tennessee will be left completely stranded.
