So is it correct that this place has never fielded a football team as of yet? Is it a school? What teams would they end up playing?

It's a huge sports complex with an indoor football field. Hosts a ton of youth and high school events in a number of sports. They are trying to start up programs where kids do online learning part of the day and then train the rest of the time. Probably the facilities don't bring in much money during school hours and this is a way to change that. They also hired prominent coaches to run girls basketball and track & field. I think it's tough to make this work for football but we'll see.

Trying out for what? Their website doesn't have any kind of tryouts posted. Was it invite only? Many teams use that facility. Was it something to do with that?

Heard he’s pissing a lot of DMV coaches off right now…just know that PME pipeline is about to have that program up.

So they’re attempting to create an IMG of sorts at St James, just without the on campus housing as well as established credentials that IMG already possesses
