      Yeah, getting 2 full teams will be quite difficult unless it is a regular event with regular players.

      hahahaha. initially, i thought of that as well. i've even approach directly some of those whom i thought they would keen to play.

      but evidently, majority are crouch soccer fans. they prefer to discuss about it.

      and kismet, i'm currently playing with another group of guys. if you are really keen and available on every sunday morning, let me know. Mr. Green

      Used to play when I was younger and even up till last year. Not too good at it but it was more for exercise whenever I had reservist IPPT coming.

      Then again, most of the time I could only play 20 - 25 mins each half before subbing out to rest. Body cannot take it ... Mr. Green

      But thanks for the invitation though I don't think I will take it up for now. Very Happy

      to gather 2 full teams (11 aside) is seriously asking for too much.

      the first soccer outing we had like 5-6 aside.

      we also had quite a few who volunteered to do cheerleading, but didnt turn up. Confused

      Maybe you can organise soccer competition instead of game......winner get to collect their prize on D&D nite... Wink

      kops21 didnt realised that i have become a crouch soccer fans??? Confused

      kops21 watch soccer games, play CM4 soccer games, do regular exercises, but no kick soccer ball. kops21 fitness should be at least on par with www. Rolling Eyes

      As we grow older, some folks hang up their soccer boots for one reason or another. For kops21, i have neber own a soccer boot in the first place. Though i did borrow from friends when there are matches...bo $$ lah.....

      How come this thread becomes soccer leow Confused

      Macritchie Reservior is big, but there are a few tracks to choose from. U can always choose the shorter one. As for Bedok Reservior although it is 4.3km, run a few rounds also make up the distance.

      We are all slow and lousy runners.... Embarassed Mr. Green

      hehe. nah, age has nothing to do with overall fitness.

      initially, i thought it is natural that one's performance decline as he grows older until we matched against a team of 30-40 year old folks (smokers with beer bellies). they taught us a good lesson.

      of course one cant expect to run tiredlessly after not having to play for a long time. but once you play regularly, your fitness will naturally come back.
