In other words, you want to run an offseason competition, in a sense. Or a cross between an offseason competition and a demo.

Here's my suggestion: Look into what it's going to cost, first--you may want to charge a small entry fee or run a snack stand to cover costs. Second, more teams will come if it's a competition--why not run some matches Friday night and finish up Saturday morning? Setup right after the school day Thursday or Friday or both, then tear down Saturday afternoon.

Oh, and a tip: if you have enough teams indicate interest, get both gyms, one for the pits and one for the competition.

Better, if all the local teams have this problem, build your own field border (I believe there are plans somewhere) and find some carpet and find a place to store them. Now, you don't have to deal with the hassle of finding a field, you just have to get it to the location. As an added bonus, you can use the field for demos in other areas.
