Call it a third of the HS's in SoCal would be workable with some minor tweaking and/or major schmoozing with the districts. Still quite a lot, but not as many as you might think.

Hey Eric!
Have you taken a look at the list of so cal venues that were all layed out to be able to fit at least 40+ teams. And thats just schools we know as of now, there is room to grow.

Many of these schools were even looked at for possible OCR and beach blitz locations. When you get rid of the show ready trusses, you actually gain a lot of locations that have the space for great events.
