Re: San Diego vs Central Valley (California Week 2)

Given that CVR is smaller, you will likely have 1 or 2 more plays than SDR, though I don't remember offhand how many there were last year. Both events are well run, though seeing as San Diego was my home regional for many years, I may be a bit biased towards the crew there. Your pit-to-arena trip is longer in CVR due to how the facility is set up, much more like Inland Empire used to be (or OCR, if there was a longer path between pits and arena). San Diego is much more of the traditional regional layout, though with the open air venue (open sides, really). Level of competition is fairly comparable, though there is a higher likelihood of out-of-state teams showing up at San Diego than Madera.
