I think divisionals are a good thing (besides the obvious fun factor).
It's good to be able to compete with people outside your region/club events and
they are an ideal "first step" for locals wanting to compete at a higher level.
There's also the very real benefit of getting to meet some great folks that you
might not have had the chance to meet otherwise.
