Coaches State Cups, Spring, and Field Use Anticipation of early cup schedules does not mean early training time on our fields. We are not affording accommodation of practice time to any team prior to April spring league schedules. Field 5 (small lighted field) will not be in use prior to Memorial Weekend. Field three will see minimal activity as well. Night practices are not available. The lighted fields are not used during spring sessions and space is not guaranteed to anyone at anytime. We offer no reservations or scrimmages. Field space is for training teams only. Are there exceptions? Generally, state cup games take precedence over spring league schedules. This has not been a problem in the past but maybe this spring. Field 1 is off limits all the time for training. Practices are allowed on undamaged field space. Shooting and other goal area practices should use Dutch nets and not jeopardize already poor goalmouths. Teams that anticipate the need to play and practice need to explore alternate solutions. Ukrainian Nationals fields will not be put in jeopardy due to weather or poor conditions which absolutely occur during the spring.
