Worst Field

I recently worked a Freshman game on a field we should probably have not permitted the teams to play on. This is a new school with new field in its second year. The crown of the field is uneven with one side being steeper from sideline to middle than the other. On the steeper side the ground is covered with patchy clumps of grass. Inbetween clumps is some gravel mixed in the dirt. At one 45 yard line near mid field there is a large flate rock flush with the ground, about 1 square foot in size. While running the sideline ona long scrimmage run I had to watch my feet to avoid the uneven ground and not trip or turn my ankle.

Thsi particulare school is new to football, and currently play only F and JV games. Next season they will add a partial varsity schedule. Teh stadium is small but high quality, bleachers, lights, scoreboard, and even play clocks in both EZ. The rpess box is yet to be built. This field needs a drastic overhaul before I'll work on it again.
