How it
works...
We
meet at the High School field,
do a little warm-up and break into two teams. Competition is
spirited but always friendly - when things begin to get too crazy we
usually
call "next goal". Following the collection
of old equipment and donations, a "team"
photo is taken for the history books.
(warm-up and game duration depend upon weather conditions) 8-)
Heard on the turf...
"fun"....."great idea".....
"exhausting, humbling and
confirmation of age".....
"fun time, good to see others".....
