I would think you would want it to be a non-conference game (just to minimize the effect of the non-standard playing conditions)and by tying it to the football game a chance to joint market both games. You certainly could offer group discounts to both youth football and youth (particularly female) soccer groups. You would get some who would come for one game or the other but hopefully you would get some for all or part of both.

But that would require marketing.

RE: Soccer at HRS
I'd be all for it, but you'd have to convince me that they'd be able to attract a crowd larger than the capacity of the existing track stadium where they currently play. That field went through a renovation prior to the launch of the team and is fantastic. Otherwise, you'd probably get the opposite effect where it feels completely empty and there's no buzz to it.
