    Yea, I've found small:

    Smaller:


    Large (80'x50') but tall(20') and impossible to see inside:


    The Thunderdome that looks VERY narrow and takes forever to install.

    Or, HUGE!



    But ...
    The only real problem with the last one is the height. The outside fabric could certainly be replaced with netting.

    Their installation involved spikes or bolts into the ground though.

    And it probably costs a FORTUNE!

    I've sent them an e-mail, so we'll see if they take me seriously or not.

      Well the dome looks the most promising to me. Only $20k lol

      Manike-It's still early days. One thing for sure is that the future is going to be interesting, and we intend to be a BIG part of it.

        Actually, it's the least promising. Impossible to have spectators.

              There are plenty of high school clubs. I even have a list here somewhere.

                    The cages they use at Ultimate Madness and the College games at IAO were a great idea. I'll see if I can find a pic of them. They were not inflatable, but they were easy to setup and tear down.

                      Problem with them was that they could only fit a 3-man field. I'm pretty sure that when you go bigger, the weight of the structure becomes to large to support itself.

                        I think those were the 'thunderdomes'. No?

                          They're Milt Call's creation. They're really very neat, if you need a portable 3-man field. HE uses them at Ultimate Madness too I believe. Might be able to find something about them at the ultimate madness site.
