There is another way to get what you want, though I'm not sure how
will it will fit your set up.

We use a repository for each project. When someone wants to check out
a project, they go to the project's information folder and click on
"Check Out Project Sources". This launches a BAT file that creates a
new folder. under C:\Projects\year\name, then does an SVN check out to
populate it. It also initializes local configuration from templates
stroed in SVN.

So far, we have no need to force people to use this mechanism because
it is much easier to use than directly checking out through TSVN or
SVN.
