The latest trend is the "soccerplex." Communities are building complexes that include 20 playing fields, seat thousands, have lighting for night games and are surrounded by massive parking lots.

The proposed "soccerplex" would include as many as 24 fields, a soccer stadium and an indoor facility, and it has strong support from the legions of soccer enthusiasts from all over Montgomery County who complain about the shortage of playing fields and their woeful condition.

The North Bergen company is looking at sites around northern New Jersey to house its soccerplex and plan to playing in the arena no later than the middle of next year, said general manager Dominick Flora.
