I am an alum of Hardee HS in Wauchula. I see the FHSAA has Hardee listed in Class 3A, District 7 when they released their "finalized" list yesterday. I believe this is an erroneous listing, because as far as I am aware nobody from here has publicly announced we will be rejoining the FHSAA only one year after we left the FHSAA for the SSAA. We joined the SSAA last year and it does not make sense to rejoin the FHSAA only one year after leaving it, so I think this is obviously an erroneous listing. However, I do see the FHSAA removed DeSoto from Class 3A, District 7 after the SSAA officially announced yesterday that DeSoto will be joining the SSAA Atlantic League for next season.
Hotels won't be a problem at The Villages. Just stock up on the multi color pack of bath loofahs. You will find a place to lay your head.
In all seriousness... Stadium capacity would be my biggest concern. You get Vero Vs MNW (I know it isn't possible) and FIU is busting at the seams let alone a 6k capacity stadium. It doesn't make sense. There are at least 8 university stadiums in this state. Probably more. 3 Pro stadiums. Soccer stadiums. Better choices exist.
