My thing is, personally I think the whole "Disney/entertainment" thing is kind of a turn off... yes, let's face it, everyone loves Mickey and a good time, but these kids are here to COMPETE at WORLDS, not go on vacation. Now, from a business perspective I will say, it is freaking smart. cater to the families of these kids, and why not bring the whole family along and make it a vacation? but when you get down to it, that's not why these kids are going. they are going to win worlds medals.
I think it needs to be moved to a venue that is strictly meant for sporting events. Keep the kids focused on the real reason they came. I know many people will disagree with me, but at this level, the focus should be more on the competition itself.
There is a sports complex in Georgia that is in the works currently called Lake Point. When I say in the works I mean literally just opened last month, still breaking ground. They haven't started on any of the indoor facilities yet, but a few years down the line this play will be HUGE. If it turns out to be as big as its suppose to be, I think that it will be exactly what worlds needs.
