Well, I think that's why the games are played there and not on, say, the high school football field. Apparently White County had a soccer-specific field built in a new sports complex, but football rules. Which is a shame, for they have some solid young talent (several girls and quite a few boys) and for them to have to play their home games on a field whose sidelines are 5 yards out from the edge of the penalty box just kinda stinks.
And hey, if American kids had the same soccer mentality as kids do in the third world, you could bet there would be folks playing in Wal-Mart parking lots!
