Before they open the stands they could set up a separate queue that each team can send about 10 students (scouts) to, and this group could be let in a few minutes early to set up where they like. Have maybe one volunteer escort them to each field's seating area who could help mediate any disputes or make sure nobody tries to save a huge area of seats or something. Once the scouts get settled the rest of the spectators can be let in.

Also, I find the seat-saving issue to be quite ridiculous most of the time. Often it's just a couple people who want to complain about some other team, the kind of people who will find something to complain about no matter what. Really it's not just people holding seats that's a problem, it's also the teams that come in to try and snatch your spots while you're gone that add to the problem. If people don't feel like they need to save their seats, they won't do it. Trampling and fighting is ridiculous. I'm not usually one to pull the GP card, but guys, GP.

Don't be selfish. Don't hold onto a chunk of seats for a long time, don't take other teams' seats just because you technically can.
