That is a cool picture. Field looks great. Didn't see the large CCH in the South west corner of the complex. That must be way up there.

 

someone in their infinite wisdom took it apart

I just hope the CovCath faithful realize how ridiculous tough this season schedule is plus an all new coaching staff. Be patient!!

I'm fairly certain that if we had that field when I was a senior, we would have been undefeated. Pretty much a fact!

Loved your team but of all teams, you guys benefitted the most from a grass field

After admiring the arial picture for quite some time, I finally noticed that the field is obviously illegal. Anyone else see a problem with the design and layout?

I noticed that the team's sideline areas go from 25 to 25...it always used to be 30 to 30. I'm not sure if that was officially designated as part of the field design, but it's a change. Also, I don't see any X's marking out kickoffs...again, not sure if that's a requirement for the field's design.

25-25 for the team box is correct. I don't think the kickoff location needs to be marked according to the rule book. You can kick the ball off anywhere between the hashes.

Confused. What is illegal?

[StateChamp97]

The markings on the field do not follow the rule book.

Which markings ?

I thought you were right about the team box going from 30 yard line to 30 yard line...but apparently it's been expanded to go from the 25 to the 25.

 

I just double checked the website for the National Federation of State High School Associations: 2014 NFHS Approved Football Field Diagrams

Correct. I couldn't tell from his post if he was saying 25 was correct or not.

Correct. I couldn't tell from his post if he was saying 25 was correct or not.

 

Any idea when they expanded the box from 40 yards in length to 50 yards?

[StateChamp97]

The infraction is clearly listed in rule #1
