I think midwest makes the most sense - both coasts travel the same distance - but I don't know how well it would go over. I think if they're going to move it around, the West coast teams won't be happy if it never comes to them... but other than Cali, there isn't a big cheer population over there so it really doesn't make sense. The parents paying the airfare won't feel the same way.
The truth of the matter is that most gyms are on the East coast and the south. Midwest doesn't have nearly as many (especially mega-gyms) when compared to those areas. And then there's California. The rest of the country has very few high-profile gyms. So obviously more comps will be in the heavily cheer-populated areas, although it may not be convenient for those in Cali.

If it is successful and there are multiple events in a year you could easily hit multiple regions. I think the more interesting question may be what will the relationship be between the athletes and the organization as far as financing the costs and what does the organization plan to do with revenues either loss or excess. I believe to assume this is a standard event in the classic sense of an EP taking all the financial risks and getting all the reward or loss may be mistaken. I hope this concept is different and changes the nature of the financial relationship of the athlete to the group responsible for the event or events.

I say we buy a hat, put the major cities on a slip of paper, then randomly draw a slip of paper.
So put like..
West coast;
Los Angeles, Seattle, Las Vegas, Portland, Pheonix, Dallas, Chicago, Atlanta, Boston, Philly, Charlotte, New York (that'd be kin of cool),
Just some ideas. I hope they change it every year that would be cool!!

Hartford could be big enough. Plus there are plenty of hotels in the area!

They need someplace where the arena and hotels are not an ungodly distance from the airport, and where public transportation to and from from the airport is an easily accessible and readily available option.

No to Boston! It's an awful location in terms of hosting events. Providence would be fabulous.. it is quite possibly my favorite venue in the area. Even though it gets expensive fast.
Who is excited for UCA College Nationals?
