| Are fields still covered in snow? Specifically Howison |
| All county owned fields are still covered in snow. Plowing damages the fields. They will not be playable until they melt naturally. |
Yeah I dont see any scenario in which the showcase happens unfortunately. At this point, let's pray the March tourneys happen. |
Revolution plowed a couple of their high end turf fields and teams are training on them this week. Maybe they have specialized equipment but I doubt they would do it if it damaged the fields. |
| Rev owns their fields and can do whatever they want with them. County owns VDA fields and will not allow plowing. |
| are you sh*tting me? they're still planning to have this this weekend? |
Did they send something out to confirm it was happening? |
| Yes, the kids will slap on ice skates and use a stick and puck instead of a ball. Use your common sense. |
essentially, yes - they sent a reminder that rosters are due tomorrow and confirmed schedules for the weekend lol |
| Sure, there might be some snow on the fields, but they just put a fresh roll of toilet paper in the XL porta-potty at Howison! Game on! |
There was no mention of even difficulty with the fields Was the standard email regarding final details for games Was pretty shocked |
Clearly you havent been to Howison lately. The upgrades are quite nice, including options other than porta-potty’s. Unless they get special permission from the county to clear the fields, which could be possible, then there is no way this is happening. |
| A lackluster list of colleges attending this year. |
| Last year VDA did clear their fields. I remember being annoyed because Fairfax doesn’t allow it. The VDA girls were practicing for 2 weeks before the teams in Fairfax were. Any VDA peeps going to practice this week? |
| MDU cancelled their showcase. |
