Our head coach appears to not care about exceeding the team capacity limit of 15 members or the senior limit of up to 7 per team. We already have well over the amount of students to fill up 3 teams entirely. I'd like to know if there was some sort of limit to how many teams a school can have participating in a regional competition.

I also wanted to propose a method of selecting the better spectrum of students to participate in the competition, but I don't know of a good method to do so. What would be a good way of selecting students?

This is dependent on the regional site, so the most qualified person to answer this is drcubbin, who's the director.

Most teams use a combo of tryout tests and invitational performance to choose their final team.

Dr. Cubbin is the director for Division B NYC Regionals. It depends on which regional you're going to. The NYC Div C West is Savvas Papadoupoulos and the NYC Div C East is Tom Sangiorgi. Also I believe there's no limit although you should still ask anyways.
