I calculated 25+ people fighting on our field at one time last friday, withe even more total over the 2 hours as people left and joined. That is very exiting! Lets keep working to grow and maintain members.
However, we were starting to deal with a dynamic that we have not had to deal with up to this point. Crowed control. If numbers keep this high, or grow. We may run in to trouble eventually. I think we should discuss this. How do we run large practices when they happen?
One idea Mog suggested was unit divisions. I don't know who we would set that up, but that would mean that the leader would only need to gather the unit leaders and explain, and then the unit leaders would in tern explain it to their units. Making a lot less work for us in charge. I just don't know how to set it up at the beginning of practice.
Another option is more structure.
We also may want to consider having a Marshall on big days.
Also, how do we set it up so that we can adjust, when we first arrive we wont necessarily know if it will be a big turn out or not until 10-20 min in.
