A couple of reasons come to mind.
- One of the complaints people have about districts is that they see the same teams over and over again. Opening the borders would allow different teams to enter the district.
- Some teams on the borders of districts are closer to events in another district than their own. This would allow those teams to decrease their travel costs by opening their options up more.
