Re: Best 2014 Regional for a Rookie Team?

I'll vouch for the Chesapeake regional given that its my home regional.

The teams are all extremly friendly and all the teams are extremly helpful to rookie teams especially. Everybody is willing to lend a hand to get you on the feild. The competition will not be as tough as some of the other regionals that you have mentioned, but it will provide a much more relaxed atmosphere for your first regional. The stadium atmosphere will also be much more intimate and close than a regional in a convention center.

Plus, with the regional taking place at the University of Maryland, you will be a 20 minute drive to the capital (like the building not just the DC border) and there are a ton of things to do in DC and around the area.

TL;DR If you want a lower key regional with a lot of friendly people who want you to suceed along with great sightseeing, Chesapeake is for you.
