Teams aren't restricted to certain Regions because for a variety of reasons.
Historically, we've encountered problems when: a Region has been unable to host a Regional Championship/Qualifier; a Regional event has not been large enough to accommodate all of the 'local' teams; and of course, there are several non-Geo teams that head for wherever they reckon they can do something entertaining between games and have a good Saturday night out. With any luck, as the sport grows, each region will become stronger, the geo-stuff will kick in and everyone will stay closer to home for Regionals. In the meantime, keep thinking, and remember this stuff BEFORE Regionals and Nationals next year :) Wayne Tue, 19 Mar 2002, by David Eastman <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]>; Subject: Shafted >Just to add to the confusion, teams are not, to my knowledge, restricted to >qualifying in the region they 'belong' to.
