Go to Post Now, our team did meet, but there wasn't much inspiring going on. Unless you call pegging me with more darn poof balls exciting. - Paul Copioli [more]

Re: All District FIRST?

States with large numbers of teams (Like Michigan, who pioneered the district system) could feasibly convert to districts in the near future, but aside from the densely populated areas of the country, I doubt we'll be seeing districts as a widespread FIRST system any time soon.
Not soon, no; but when the teams per area gets to a high enough quantity it will. So, as FIRST moves toward the complete district system, some states will become left out for a little bit as more and more join the district brotherhood.
