Re: Block seating for teams in division stands?

In some venues it might not be an issue because they are small enough that you can see well no matter where you sit and the only thing you might not like is sitting for three days on metal bleachers instead of in stadium seats. And you might be able to get up and go down and cheer close to the field when your team is competing. But larger venues do present unique challenges since you can't go up close to cheer; there are "good seats" and "not so good" seats. Accomodating 85 teams on a field will be a logistical nightmare no matter what you do. Maybe they can rope off the prime seating area to accomodate 6 teams' worth of people and another area for team scouts and everyone can rotate in and out of that area each match that they are competing in. But would that be "doable"? If a team has 30 people or more, that's 180 people moving every two minutes.
