Two days since training.. Feeling sore

Was good to see all the new one faces, as well as the familiar, albeit older faces—considering we are reorganizing over a short period of time, we had a very good training session this past Wednesday. Great turnout!

Outside of some blisters, no injuries were sighted or reported, unless it was the group of boys bending their elbows at The Merchant on Grove street—if you think training ends when we leave the pitch, you’d be mistaken—to be in proper football form, not only must we exercise, run, dribble, pass and shoot, but we must also put the pints down in preparation for the season.
Seriously though, we did have a good session and expect to continue as we form up into a proper team. Bring your monies next week—I’ll have forms for everyone to complete as he league will require all paperwork to be submitted shortly—

Some key points for all to keep in mind:
-Bring light and dark jerseys—else half of us will end up as skins and the other half will be horrified.

-Training next week is Wednesday August 2nd, 2006 at 8pm—same place

-Bring water and bug spray for your own sake

-If you need a ride to the park, a couple of cars will pick up (and drop off) at Grove Street Path at 7:45pm—

-We do make it a point to have a few pints, even if its bud light, after training—and the Merchant appears to have happy hour prices all night on Wednesday, so come on out!

-if you intend to play with the team this season, and in order to get you registered, we need club fees-- $150 cash or check either to GSSL or to Juan Hidalgo—whatever floats your boat.

-Once season schedule comes out, we’d like to have a social the Friday before our first game—as we are all older and grizzled, wives and SOs will be more than welcome.

-Know anyone else who may enjoy the kick around or even be looking to join a team this season? Bring them out.
