Assume that there is a game unless you hear otherwise

Every Sunday at 9:00 AM we try to have a game. Sometimes the weather does not cooperate. We’ve moved back to McCarthy turf field for the cold months. We had a nice turnout this past Sunday. It was an 8 v 8 And we played all the way to 11:00.

Personally, I don’t play when it is below 38 degrees, but everyone has their own threshold of what “too cold” means to them. A hat and gloves help.

Last winter we got to play at least once in every month. When the weather conditions looked particularly good, we’d send out a post to rally the troops. But DO NOT rely only on the posts. If you think that the weather is such that you want to play, go to the field for 9:00 AM.

When we are on the grass fields, we cancel when it is wet in order to protect the fields. When we are on the turf, that is not a problem. Some winter games don’t happen, even if the weather is nice, because the field is not clear. Even an orange soccer ball doesn’t really help in the snow. (We used to have an orange soccer ball, but Erik kicked it into the brook at Murphy. LOL)

So, use common sense and assume that if it is nice enough out for us to play, that we’re playing unless you get a message otherwise. We’ll try to post as appropriate.

Even in the winter, bring a white shirt and a dark shirt, but not a grey shirt. Yes, grey can be under the other shirt, but not the one on top.
