Can you share data on districts teams that registered for regionals?

Here's hoping we don't have the same unfortunate elimination mishap as we did in 2015

[Owen Busler]

303 got waitlisted to Hudson valley regional. Hope we get in!

Hmmm... It was 10 to 16 a little earlier today. Did 2 teams unregister for Houston? Thought I saw 254 in the Houston Pool at one point.

Here are the events still showing inviting open slots, although many other events have hidden room to pull from waitlists:

22 ---- Western Canada Regional
17 ---- ONT District - Windsor Essex Great Lakes Event
13 ---- Idaho Regional
13 ---- NE District - Greater Boston Event
13 ---- ONT District - Nipissing University Event
10 ---- PNW District - West Valley Event
10 ---- PNW District - Mount Vernon Event
8 ----- Arkansas Rock City Regional
8 ----- ONT District - Victoria Park Collegiate Event
6 ----- Arizona North Regional
4 ----- ONT District - Western University, Engineering Event
3 ----- Lone Star North Regional
2 ----- Bayou Regional
2 ----- PNW District - Central Washington University Event
2 ----- PNW District - Lake Oswego Event
2 ----- PNW District - Auburn Event
1 ----- Rocket City Regional
1 ----- NC District - UNC Asheville Event


Another way to look at it is the events that don't have enough teams yet for a full playoff schedule:
18 ----- FIM District - Kettering University Event #2
22 ----- Idaho Regional
22 ----- NE District - Greater Boston Event
22 ----- ONT District - Victoria Park Collegiate Event
22 ----- Laguna Regional
23 ----- ONT District - Nipissing University Event
23 ----- Lone Star North Regional

I was wondering at what point does an event (regionals specifically) become too large an get split into two smaller events? What is the biggest regional this year, in terms of attendance? What are the criteria for splitting a regional? I'm wondering because the Denver regional has it's typical 50ish teams registered, which seems to me like a lot compared to other regionals, but it has had this number of attendees for 5+ years. I was just wondering what it might take to create Northern and Southern Colorado Regionals. IMO Colorado would need to produce another 5-10 teams for the 2018 season to potentially have two regionals in 2019 but I am by no means an expert.

It's usually somewhere in the 60-64 range (assuming the venue can handle that size) maximum. Beyond that, if the venue can handle more they can do a double event (2 fields, 2 separate events, 1 venue) or do two un-related events, etc.
