[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Field permits in Fairfax came out last week for spring. Nobody in Fairfax will see a fall field permit until July. Clubs seem to get the same fields every year so they pretty much can predict though. There aren’t new turf fields sitting around waiting for clubs to ask for them. I believe two factors beyond just giving clubs what they historically get are the percentage of kids at the club from that county and also non-profit status. 
Correct me if I am wrong, but I don’t think FCV has county or public  school fields in Fairfax. 
I can’t speak to Loudoun County but I would be surprised if they do things much differently. Randomly asking for a bunch of fields won’t get them for you, unless you can show that they are under-used or the group that normally gets the field has significant drop off in numbers. I doubt any club in western Fairfax is in those situations, and I can’t believe Loudoun soccer is lacking numbers needed to maintain their allocation. [/quote]

Its also supposed to be based on the total number of players in your rec +travel programs, and the amount of field space given is based on the ages of the players (u11 and up are suppoosed to get more space). But, our org keeps increasing in numbers but we never get any more turf space. The county also counts grass fields towards your allotment and you can't say, turf only.

A for profit like fcv could probably get some grass field permits but no one wants them
