Re: Confirmed New Districts for 2015?

If we were to host 4 districts and we would stick them in population dense areas they would be:
Fort Lauderdale
Tampa
Orlando
and The Merrit Island/Melbourne area.
And Orlando would most likely host championship

So teams such as 2556 would have to travel 5 hours to it's closest district(s).
I always thought like a good way to do it(In a perfect world) in the first year of Florida districts would be one a week: Fort Lauderdale, Miami, Melbourne, Tampa, Jacksonville. Then Week 6 would be a bye week before champs at UCF.

Back in reality, though, this is why Florida is a ways off from districts. As there are enough North Florida teams to care about, but not enough team density to warrant a district.
