In an old thread just before the start of the 2008 season, this post is a faint glimpse into the thoughts that motivated FiM. I was not in Michigan at that time, but moved here a year later.

Yes I understand that everything didn't JUST fall into place. But the decision to go to districts was made in July/August of 2008. 3 people were the driving force behind it and the ones who did the bulk of the work to make the move.

The fact that 3 people were able to do it shows that its actually easier than people think. I also believe that the smaller the region the easier it is to make the move and grow with the teams over time instead of having 300 teams and making the plunge. I do not envy Minnesota, California, or Texas.

I don't agree with this but Gail believes that if there are 40 teams in an area that want to go to districts they should has that's really all you need to go to districts.

Also a district championship is not a requirement it is the option of the district to hold one or have team qualify only by their district event performance.
