Mid-Season Feedback

Hi Everybody!

In an effort to continually improve our league, We would like to your request your feedback on the season so far. 

What do you like?  

What don't you like?

Suggestions on how we can rectify the things you don't like?

One of the big things we hear every year is how the higher skilled players don't pass or let the lesser skilled players have a chance.  So please take this as a reminder that this is a fun non-contact league for everyone.  Non-Contact means not using your arms or hands to push off people or keep them away.  It also means not sliding or intentionally kicking legs or feet.  You can still use your body to protect the ball.

To the players with higher skills, take this as an opportunity to teach.  Help us make this fun for everyone, by passing to everyone regularly and not immediately attacking a player with lesser skills.  Do give them a chance to make a play.

To the players with lesser skills, take this as an opportunity to learn.  What are the higher skilled players doing to get the ball more often?  (Being in an open space, being in a clear line for the pass, calling for the ball.)

Another issue we have is regular attendance.  Unfortunately, this year has been worse due to injuries and work commitments.  We have rarely played 2 games.  Next year we plan on just having 2 large teams.  When we have enough for 2 games then we'll split into 4 squads.  That should hopefully get games started on time and we can easily accommodate late comers.

Please do take the time to respond with your comments, or approach myself, Ian, Chris, Justin or Martin with your thoughts.

Thanks, see you tomorrow night.

Game ON!

Hi Everyone,

Good News!  The remaining outstanding jerseys have arrived, so if you haven't gotten yours yet we have them now.

We've had a few injuries so please don't over do it, we have a long season.  Drink lots of fluids and warm up and stretch before and after the games.   Take a break when you need it.  We are all at different fitness levels there is no need to push ourselves too far.

It is going to be a warm one tonight (bring lots of water) and there is a chance of rain or thunderstorms.  We do play in the rain, however, if there is lightning and thunder we will stop.  It usually passes quickly and we can wait it out in some cars until it does.

If anyone is interested in joining us, we are going for a drink at the boar's head tonight after the game.

See you all tonight!

1st Game tonight

Hi Everyone, 

We have our first game of the 2015 season tonight.  Looks like the sun is going to come out for it!

We have a great mix of new and old, beginner and veteran players so it looks to be a great season!

Unfortunately do to availability we had to make some order changes for the team jerseys and all of the new jerseys have not arrived from overseas yet.  Some players will have to make do with pinnies tonight. Rest assured they are en route and everyone will get a new jersey soon.  If possible, please bring a light and dark shirt just in case we need to make changes tonight.  

I have attached some pics of the replacement jerseys.

For those wanting to a refresher or tips tonight, I will be at the field by 6pm so please come early.

Please review the league rules.  We are all about fun, friends and exercise, not scoring or stats.

For insurance reasons and your safety, please make sure you have cleats and shin pads, as you won't be able to play without them.

Looking forward to seeing everyone and meeting some new friends tonight.  Thanks to those that have notified us of their absence tonight.  We will see you soon.
