Where will NCHSAA Football Championships be played
- Thread starter Hon Dines
- Start date
Only venues are NC State and UNC, according to the NCHSAA brackets.
Sounds like the only thing left will be which classes at each venue. I was hoping Winston Salem because that's less than a hour for me.
Wake also has an incredible stadium that doesn’t swallow up a crowd like Carolina and State do.
In AZ they do their semi n final at HS Venus in PHX metro i think NC should do that with big games n also some of playoffs like Memorial stadium in CLT
I wish they would host all 4 games at WFU. Great stadium that is the right size for the crowds that go to the games. And good location IMO.
how close is winston salem to your location steeler.
east carolina maybe would be a great place to host
I will admit you do feel much more wanted at wake forest
than any of the other places, unc seems to care less.
Any of the current 4 is around 2 hrs

UNCC could be a great host too.
New panthers owner expressed a desire to host games. Now with four games, it is more feasible.
He is laying the groundwork for a new stadium. Figures this couldn’t hurt his chances.
That stadium would swallow up crowds more than UNC/State do. It’d be a cool experience, but Wake and Duke are ideal options.
ECU is basically the same distance from Carter Finley that UNCC is from NC A&T. A&T is the most centralized site in the state.
Look at a state map and the population clusters. ECU is very far east and not a large population center.
Winston is a bit too far west but much closer to the center of the state (A&T) than EC and to some degree the Triangle schools.

To bump this back up, isn’t it close enough to announce the venues? Not putting the cart before the horse, but it’d be nice to know.
Are they going to wait to see what teams are in the finals and place the games geographically?
Get ready for an uproar.
UNC has a home men’s basketball game at 8 pm December 11.
Someone is playing Friday night.
I predict 8pm Friday and 11am Saturday at UNC. Or Friday night at UNC and three games at nc state Saturday.

They need to start scheduling some games at UNCC. The geographical argument is moot, being Charlotte teams have had to travel to Raleigh, Chapel Hill.
Before they started subdividing when it was only four state champions They played the 3 A on Friday night and the other three games on Saturday at Carolina.
I would love for all the games to be at Wake Forest.
Wake Forest and UNCC. Who's all in agreeance?
I like that. The Regionals should be at a big neutral site.
I think they should go back to playing the games at the east and west champions home field .Rotating it each year.Would have a bigger crowd than they have now.
I love the idea but logistically it does not work well.
It's a much easier decision when you have a stadium like Pisgah has. A lot of places, especially in the east do not have the best facilities. Does the visitor then need hotel accommodations and if so, where is the hotel located, can it handle a full team, et al.
I like the central location but the Triangle is not the center of the state and the college stadiums swallow the crowd. Wish A&T had turf and the games could be played there. One on Friday and three on Saturday.
I've been to one game at Wake Forest. It's a very good venue for high school ball.
Man, I love it. It’s especially good if you can get the teams to field a good crowd. It’s easier to make look full.
If Wake had four dressing rooms it would be the perfect facility for the title games.
I agree. UNC, NC State are and Bank of America would be way too cavernous. I'd still like to see at least one game played at UNCC or even Memorial Stadium in Charlotte. I believe both venues are good size for high school ball.
If they did that, there needs to be a minimum size, including the number of seats on the visitors side. Many schools are not suitable. It could also pose a huge transportation challenge, depending on the distance.
Thomasville played at Eastern Randolph in 1983. They had a decent sized stadium, but it was not nearly large enough. I prefer neutral sites.
Every year at this time this subject comes up…just be glad your team is playing for a state championship…it really don’t matter the location,distance or time to the kids,…all their thinking about is winning a championship
Would also be more of a high school setting. I loved it in 80s when they did that. Bigggg crowds that stadiums didn't seollow up fans.
Cape Fear filled NC State stadium in 2016. Got beat 54-0 though, but they brought out a great crowd.
Maybe, they will decide to play the games at the High School like they did in the throwback days
