Were any SoCal folks involved? Because, I'm going to say this once, there is significant opposition in high places down here. You're preaching to the choir for a fair number of SoCal teams, but the higher-ups do. not. like. the idea of districts.


Not a criticism, just a question and a statement of fact.

None of the higher-ups in FIRST CA like districts, which I'm guessing is why California doesn't have them. When I first started learning about this program I was told by some regional directors that districts were a surefire way to ruin everything that we've worked so hard for. Now after spending some time learning about them myself, especially with the help of these documents, I believe the FIRST CA higher-ups have their own agenda they're trying to push that isn't necessarily in the best interest of California teams.
