My U16 son's team is scheduled to play a game here against an org I have never heard of.
There's not a soccer field at Sterling ES. Unless one was recently built? |
|
There's a piece of grass field next to a baseball field but its not a soccer field or big enough to turn into an 11v11 field.
What's the name of the new org? |
| "Club Deportivo Sterling" ?????? |
| I would hope that they mean the adjacent high school field |

Nope. Elementary school grass. SFL has gone to hell under NCSL |
| Just looked it up as I have never heard of it either-all their teams no matter the age are scheduled for home games at Sterling ES, but there is definitely no field there. Weird. |
|
U16 boys will kill each other on a tiny grass field, wth!?
Aren't there standards for the fields used? Size of field, size of goals, condition of field? |
That's where the opposing coach e-mails the Sterling coach the league rules and tells them they aren't agreeing to a non-regulation field |
|
Their webpage says Sterling -
Maybe that empty field got lined? https://deportivosterling.com/about-us/field-locations/ |
| NCSL should not be scheduling games on dangerous fields. |
Look at the satellite view and compare it to the football field at next door. |
|
No way is that enough space for a full-sided game for high school boys.
Tell your coach to insist it be switched to a home game on your club's extra field space. |
|
Per the satellite view, there is no way to line that field to the correct size.
You would need the field lines to be a good bit away from that outfield fence for the baseball field to prevent the players from slamming into a metal fence. |
| This Saturday, they have a 9v9 (U11) game scheduled, and then a u13 and U16 game. 9v9 games are a different size field and much smaller goals than 11v11 games. Are they going to be moving goals around and resetting the field after every game? |
| I bet they only hire one ref as well. |
