Monday Evening, OUTDOOR TURF, 8pm Buckley Field
Welcome back players!

Please BE ON TIME. let's start early and finish early. 8pm to show up and we are starting as the kids come of the field. 2-3 players can build each goal and 2-3 to set up cones for corners and half so it is marked.

Please bring turf shoes, the stepping injuries and shin kicking are getting out of hand.

This group is for the good players or the one who are just starting, for the young players and the older ones, for the one who are trying to get out of the house and skip the gym and the gym rats, for the one who are out of shape and the one that can run a marathon, the one who have a wife and need to run away and the one who eat out every day.

Regardless we will accept, play and enjoy with each and every one of you.

Please read below as a refresh for the rules, laws, suggestions, and dictatorships of this group.

Group rules:
1\. We don't charge per game\, once every 6 month\, rate is $15\. It covers the washing of the pinnies\, goals\, balls\, and meetup fees\. We do have a customizable pinnie that will have your name and number on it\, it cost $20 and we collect a few players at the time and order it\. If you enjoy the group we DO ask you to buy and use it\.
2\. We play on TURF 99% of the time\, we do ask for turf shoes\, but if you have cleats just don't step on too many players\, you are just hurting others\.
3\. We play for fun\, Absolutely no slide tackles\, no pushing from the back\, no injuries\, no coaching and no yelling at other players\.
4\. Game time on meetup means the time you have to be there\, we are trying to get going and started within 15 minutes\. if you have to change\, stretch\, text your gf or wife\, or boyfriend \(sorry flavio\) do it before hand\.
5\. We will introduce new players\, setup and split teams based on position playing and get going\, really uneven teams\, we will re shuffle teams\.
6\. Please ONLY rsvp if you know you can show up\. don't take someone spot and then cancel at the last minute\, we will miss players and waiting list players will not be ready in time \- I do watch who does it and how often\.
7\. Respect the call\, by me\, by the opposite team's players\, by your teams members\. fouls\, hand ball\, out\, corner and so on\. gaining another 30 seconds of play is not worth the 5 minutes arguing about it\.
8\. Respect the place\, the host\, the teams and the groups\. feel free to find a different team if you don't like us\.
9\. Absolutely NO slide tackles\, we all have work the next day and some don't have good health insurance
10\. Absolutely no coaching or yelling or calling your teammates anything but a mother fucker when they fuck up extremely and / or obvious a bad play\. but let's work together to improve\, to get better\, to learn our weaknesses and learn to improve in your current position and improve if you want to try a new position\.
11\. For the love of all of our gods combined\, PASS THE MOTHER FUCKING BALL\, none of us is Messi\, open up next to the player and give him an opportunity to make an easy pass and continue for the run\. also remember\, sometimes the easiest pass is passing backwards to the mid or defense and changing the sides of the possession\.

Game Rules:
1\. Fouls are called by the 2 players hitting each other ONLY\, no arguments\, he called it\, just respect it and move on\.
2\. IF A PLAYER is laying on the grass with obvious pain\, especially if the ball is still in that area\, regardless if a foul was called or not\, we will call to STOP\, safety first\.
IF A PLAYER gets hit in the face from the ball, STOP, safety first, Check on them and play from the back, start the play again.
3\. Last person goalie\, no hands\, don't stay at goal \- tired players\, play defense and switch back
4\. We play offsides\, so don't stand by the goal and wait for the ball to come to you\.
5\. Official goal kicks\. no passing from the back for a quick play \- at the same time\, open and move around so we can have a quick pass in\.
6\. Hand throw in \- if it is illegal throw 1 more chance and than just ask for someone else to throw it in\.
7\. Be a good sportsman\, if the ball is by you\, go get it even if it is the other teams\. Call your own mistakes\, handball\, outs\, corners\, fouls and so on\.
8\. If you shoot for the hell of it and it is completely off the goal\, YOU KICK YOU CHASE\.
9\. Shooting to the goal only passed the half line\, but make it nice\, lets not start playing half court ping pong shots to score\.

As always, lets have fun, enjoy, play the beautiful game we all love, and leave the place cleaner than we found it.
