Third time lucky? After being defeated by inclement weather twice, we will try again to play proper 11-a-side football on a proper 11-a-side pitch, regardless how much fun our improvised 6-a-side exploits have been.
Turnout has been fantastic for our last outing, and I secretly hope that we can repeat this for this game, even if it the day after the night before (www.drownedinsound.com/community/boards/social/4192223). Nothing better than getting over your hangover than a brisk stroll in the park on a bright winter afternoon!
The details:
- we play on a full-sized grass pitch
- there are facilities in a little building called The Hub (in the middle of Regent's Park), with lockers and showers (£1.50 charge)
- the football pitches are centered around The Hub
- the exact pitch will not be announced until Sunday morning 9 AM
- nearest tube station is Baker Street (15 min walk) with Camden tube station at a similar distance
- arrive at 1:30 PM for warm-up, tactics discussion, team pictures, etc.
- kick-off at 2 PM sharp
- full 2 x 45 minutes and injury time + 15 min break
- one team will play in red shirts, the other in blue
- everyone can participate, the skills on display are wide-ranging
- final teams will be announced in the week leading up to the game
- four pounds will be collected on the day
- post-match analysis in the Spread Eagle pub in Camden (corner of Albert St and Parkway)
