Block seating for teams in division stands?

The rules for "At the Event" clearly state that saving seats is not allowed.

The teams in Archimedes (and I suspect Newton as well) that watched the opening ceremonies found that most of the prime viewing locations in the stands by those fields were occupied by "squatters" reserving blocks of seats for their teams. Some words were exchanged about the "no saving seats rule", but ultimately these folks stayed put and were able to capture seats for the rest of their team's fans. Not very nice for those who watched the opening ceremonies (at least the big screens didn't display the ceremonies - according to a complaining squatter!)

As clever and efficient as FIRST is, I'm sure the organization can devise a means of pre-determining seating for teams in the division stands. I could envision a lottery, or first-come-first-served reservation system, or something based on team ranking, seniority, ... whatever.

Any thoughts???
