If the people running ASA were smart, they'd schedule as many ASA nationals as possible in California for the next few years and try to smother PGF in the crib. It may already be too late, but next year's crop
18G Oklahoma
18U Tennessee
16U Alabama
14U South Dakota
12U Illinois
10U Indiana
is not going to put a damper on PGF in California. I would imagine that AZ would also prefer SoCal to the other trips as well.
10U and 12U Westerns are in NorCal (both in Roseville?), but 14U in Oregon and 16U in Las Cruces, NM are not big draws for the California teams.
If PGF is the success I expect this year and next, it will be too late for ASA to get the horse back in the barn.
