[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Muldoons has always had its issues, but the soccer fields were always set up previously in a manner that the slope was from the side, so that neither team was having to play uphill or downhill in a half.  The fields have now been set up in a manner that forces teams to play uphill in one half and downhill in the other.  This is absurd on every level, including the obvious impact it has had on games, as nearly all goals are scored by the team going downhill in a half.  No "top" level travel teams, or their opponents, should be forced to play on fields that are literally a gentle sloping hill.  And that is to say nothing about the usual problems with Muldoons (poor quality grass; uneven playing surface that causes the ball to skip and jump unexpectedly; poor drainage; etc.).  Speaking of drainage, Muldoons appears to have never dried out from all of the rain last fall.  Other posters are correct, it is a matter of time before some child is badly injured slipping on a muddy, wet field, and someone is going to note that other soccer fields in the area (e.g., SoccerPlex) are dry as a bone right now.

I have never understood why BSC plays at Muldoons, especially with an alternative like the SoccerPlex, which is vastly superior and also a shorter drive for nearly all BSC players and coaches.  If it is a matter of cost, then I am sure BSC parents would gladly pay more for games to be played at SoccerPlex, or any other real soccer field, than Muldoons.  The club should be embarrassed that it forces its younger teams to play games at Muldoons.  [/quote]

No matter how Muldoons is arranged it is absolutely unacceptable as a soccer field.[/quote]
