Field Size

[ThomasJ]

I heard that TSSAA was going to set a min. size field to host region or Sectional games. Is there any truth to this and if so has anyone heard the size?

As long as they get the state Tourney off of that awful turf ...who cares

One FRA player has a "turf burn" the size of a fist on her knee. OUCH!

My daughter also recd. a pretty nice rug burn from it.

 

I saw several games on the turf and there appeared to be a number of players slipping on it. I don't know if it was the players wearing the studded cleats vs. the blades that had problems or what. But more importantly it seemed to me that I saw more stuck cleats, where a leg or ankle gets caught in an odd position. Could all be my imagination because I for 1 didn't like the turf (granted a whole lot better than last year), but soccer should be played on grass (note I said grass not mud).

Hopefully as the rumor mill has it ,the state tourneys will all be played at the new Murfreesboro soccer complex.

Who cares...

well maybe u should see the name of the topic...FIELD SIZE...maybe thats who cares..

[ThomasJ]

I care!

We are looking to do some improvements to our field. We need to know if our field will meet the standards before we put alot of money into a field that won't be able to host post season games.

I understand that Baylor's field is very nice. For what it's worth I know the FRA teams like going to Chattanooga....they see the rip as a reward for getting to state.....something in the Nashville area would not have the same special appeal...but getting to State is always great, no matter where. The Chattanooga venue is somewhat central.
