Re: How about eight divisions on four fields
I would rather see 4 divisions and 8 fields (9 with Einstein). Each division could have a "double field", two fields right next to each other. Matches wouldn't be played on both at the same time, but you could have one field getting ready while the other plays. Thus even matches are played on field "A" while odd matches are on field "B". The wait between matches could be reduced to a minute or two and we could actually get more than 6 or 7 matches per team.

FIRST definitely has the fields, but I don't know if (a) the wifi will play well or (b) there would be too much of a strain on the announcers and referees with such a hectic pace.
