I was thinking Robbinette
I remember going in there to speak with Honakers coaches before the benefit game a couple of years ago. Definitely cramped quarters. What was worse, Clintwood or Haysi? I never played at Appy, Cwood or Haysi, but they all seemed pretty bad.
The worse I ever had to deal with was at Northwood my freshman year. We dressed under the stadium with their team. Divided only by showers that half worked with broken beer bottles and other glass in the floor of the dressing room and shower area. Classy I know.
It's close between CW and Appy. Half the team has to stand outside at halftime at Appy, at least at CW you can get your whole team in there.
I always liked playing at Clintwood. I know Appys visting locker room is horrible because we had to use it in JV. Thomas Walkers may be the worst I was in because not only is it small but its a 10 minute walk to the field haha. We had a lighting delay up there my 10th grade year and Coach Turner took us into their gym wearing cleats instead of making us walk back.
TW did have nice showers though. It is a little tight, but mainly because of the lockers. I didn't find it too bad. TS was pretty tight as well if I remember correctly. When we went back to Northwood they had us change in a school lockerroom which was about a half mile away from the field it seemed.
Lee Highs was nice, and Coeburns were as well I thought.
How would PV's rate though? I would have to put them on the crappy level because where do you go at halftime or before the game?
You have to put Coeburn at the top of any football faciliites list in the region or this side of Roanoke for that matter. Visitors right on the field plenty of room, decent showers even the film crew and coaches in the pressbox have plenty of room and not stuck in a hole with a 2 foot wide window for 2-3 coaches or just out on top of the bleachers or in a room behind the home fans where you can't see when they stand up.
My sophomore year we dressed on the home sidelines and we went back 2 years later and dressed on the visitors sidelines. Neither one was a bad locker room.
That was when we switched home and visitor sides of the fieldhouse. Both are pretty well the same, just made sense to switch them like that.

Yep, I dressed out in both of them--was on the current home side when I was in JV/8th grade, was on the current visitors side when I played varsity. The varsity locker room had nicer lockers, but I think that's been remedied since the latest switch--haven't been in there in a while. They're equally close to the whirlpools/training/weight rooms, and are nicer than most locker rooms I was ever in, in any sport.
i remember having to take a [censored] in front of the team in those nice clintwood facilities as well
