The FMS as we know it (2014 Version) is capable of supporting teams on multiple fields. You would just need to copy the Passkeys (WPA Keys) from one field and put it on the other. If I remember correctly this is how you are able to communicate on the practice field at CMP for 2013 and 2014. The only problem that I can see is the publishing of scores to FIRST and the ranking system, since it is not designed for two fields like FTC.
