———-

Teams are assigned to a home district based on the team’s city listed in the FIRST TIMS database. Each district has their own specific set of qualifiers within that district and all qualifiers in that district advance into a specific District Championship.

During Early Bird registration, teams can only register into a qualifier in their assigned home district.  Once General Tournament registration opens, then teams can freely choose to register into any tournament that has space.
