I love the small town atmosphere for these types of games.
I grew up in a town of 1200 people. Our school system had about 55-60 kids per grade.
Friday night football games, we'd have 2500 spectators at the field... because it was Friday night and that's what you do on Friday night. And almost everyone had someone on the team that they were close to (Son, brother, cousin, nephew, friend of the family, etc)
Basketball games would usually have 800-900 people.
The level of play may be higher at the big schools, but for my money the best atmosphere is in the small town "event" setting.
