NY Districts - POA

[Josh Goodman]

So, I will say that this has been on the Regional Directors radar for a few years now (as you heard in the email). I want to echo the important point of everyone being on the same idea that districts _will_ happen sooner or later.

The reason why they have not yet are the insane amount of logistics needed to transfer to a different system like this. Things like how to split up the district locations (Putting upstate NY and NYC/LI together makes no sense) as well as figuring out who is hosting the competitions, how many are needed, if we have a volunteer base and the teams to go.

To the point of TVR and FLR being small: TVR had 36 teams this year out of a 36 team limit, FLR has 49 teams this weekend out of a 50 team limit. I think you would see a slight increase in size if venue was of no objective.

I'm not saying "don't have this conversation", I'm saying: these conversations are and have been happening, so if you're interested and pushing the region to districts sooner rather than later, do what 1493kd did and contact the right people to see how you can be a part of it.
