A perfect STFC location is a hard court with the following qualities:
⏱️ Certainty of tenure → consistently empty or ability to be permitted / rented
➕ Large space, big enough for 5v5 (50-60 ft wide X 75-90 ft long). Think: large basketball court.
➖ Surface is level
✅ High quality surface → no cracks/holes, good drainage, no potholes, no loose gravel
⚽ Good ball retention, i.e. surrounded by a wall or fence on all or some sides
🚧 Absence of physical obstructions
📍 Central location in the city
🚊 Located near public transportation / parking, depending on the city
🚓 In a safe, well-lit neighborhood
💡 Lights → for night games
🔐 Ability to store equipment
👬 Multiple courts - leaves space free for the local community and/or gives us the ability to run multiple games at once!
