This is a very expensive field to build. The field for the Scrimmage is approximately full size and includes two complete sets of defenses, towers etc.
We focus the Scrimmage on teams in their first few years, especially rookies. So ROOKIES GET IN FREE. In addition, SCRRF's policy is to not let financial issues keep a team from participating in any of our events. All a team that cannot pay for one of our events has to do is contact SCRRF and we will work something out. We usually need volunteers for load-in and load-out, field reset, referees etc. The important thing is they contribute to the event.
If we should happen to make a significant amount money the excess above what we need to operate is returned to the teams as scholarships.
We enjoyed our time at Harvey Mudd as it has a nearly perfect venue, but they charged us more rent than we could afford last year. Valencia is much cheaper
