Use of 方に In this sentence


> どうしても入り方にこだわりたいのか...

I'd like to know how 方に works here. I don't think it's read 入{はい}り方{がた}, 'time
of setting', given the context I have. More likely it's 入り + 方に, since in the
story the speaker seems be coerced into entering some kind of contest.

I found [an example on
Tatoeba.org](http://tatoeba.org/eng/sentences/show/107532) of 方{ほう}に
translated as 'made for':

> 彼{かれ}は戸口{とぐち}の方{ほう}に進{すす}んだ  
>  'He made for the door'

Maybe that use of 方に could fit into the sentence in question...




Pretty sure it's `入{い}り方{かた}`, which here means "way/means of entering [the
contest]". And `こだわる` here is probably "insist on, make fuss about". So, I get
something like:

"Do you really want to get me into that contest no matter what?"

Check a grammar book about the [`～方`
suffix](https://japanese.stackexchange.com/questions/6823/).
