MVM Posted October 10, 2009 Report Share Posted October 10, 2009 Since everyone is looking for more to talk about on here, this is always a favorite topic..... As more schools are getting their own fields (we here at Ravenwood now have our own field and are in the process of doing a lot of things to make it top shelf - sound system, dugouts, etc...) who has the best facility to play at? I'll start it off by saying that the Greater Cleveland Soccer Complex where Cleveland High plays their games is an unreal facility. The field is huge, has a wonderful surface, they have international dugouts, they have an announcers booth at half line, and many other things. It is an awesome place to play. Waston I'll agree, Cleveland has done an outstanding job upgrading their facility. They have went from a field no bigger than a postage stamp to a field that can be stretched to the max. However, I would like to Challenge Cleveland to put in better drainage, on and around the field. With a city and caring parents behind the program I'm sure that would not be a problem.

Justafan379 Posted October 11, 2009 Report Share Posted October 11, 2009 Soddy-Daisy can lay claim to the oldest facilities and the best concessions. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mjuhb Posted October 12, 2009 Report Share Posted October 12, 2009 lincoln co would be the best if it had lights tullahoma and franklin co both have great facilities coffee co has worst field ever in the history of soccer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
arsenal4 Posted October 12, 2009 Report Share Posted October 12, 2009 Coffee County might have the smallest field ever in the history of soccer, but the surface is pristine. Doesn't get much better than that. White County, on the other hand, might have the worst field ever. Poor surface, significant grade, small dimensions--not conducive to attractive soccer at all. But it does have lights. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Canesoverhere Posted October 12, 2009 Report Share Posted October 12, 2009 "But it does have lights." . . . . so does a Wal-Mart parking lot but it doesn't make it a playable soccer field. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

siegelsoccer Posted October 13, 2009 Report Share Posted October 13, 2009 Wouldn't believe it unless I saw it but Smyrna has the best field in Rutherford County. Great grass, cut short, great bleacher section. Just got to get the band to practice somewhere else...I'm kind of jealous. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Great grass, cut short, great bleacher section. Just got to get the band to practice somewhere else...I'm kind of jealous. Definitely a shout out to the new Smyrna field. Funny thing is that two years ago, the ladies team was relegated to practicing in the outfield of the baseball field. The ladies, parents and supporters started wearing Title IX bracelets, holding meetings and voila, there is money for a new soccer field. Good job.

speedrush11 Posted October 13, 2009 Report Share Posted October 13, 2009 Oak Ridge has a great, large field with wide stands for everyone to view the game. Best facility i've been to by far. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
arsenal4 Posted October 14, 2009 Report Share Posted October 14, 2009 "But it does have lights." . . . . so does a Wal-Mart parking lot but it doesn't make it a playable soccer field. 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!
