The Chelmsford Sunday Soccer Club's Blog

The college kids have gone back to school and some of the older kids have gone off to make their way in the world.  But us old guys (and sometimes gales) are still giving it a go, so come join us this Sunday at 9am.  Note that the location has changed since Pop Warner Football (the wrong type) is now playing on the McCarthy artificial turf field.  Starting this week, we are playing at the Harrington school fields (down the hill next to the stadium).  See the menu for directions.  All are welcome so bring a friend.  Remember to bring a dark and white shirt (never gray) so we can make even teams.  See you there!

I picked up a ball at the end of play yesterday. If you are missing your ball, please let me know. You can either comment on this post, e-mail me at 1L0J7M@gmail.com, or call/text me at (978) 729-6805.

Not really a debate, but this Sunday is going to be so perfect for soccer. I know that it is vacation time, but those of us in town need to get together for a game. See you for a 9:00 AM kick-off at McCarthy. White shirt, dark shirt, never a grey shirt. If we could get 8 v 8 in the rain last week, we should be able to have 11 v. 11 this week. Hope to see you all there.

The good news is that the forecast calls for us getting some much needed rain. The bad news is that the rain is during the time we usually play. Since we’re playing on turf, it may not impact our game. Soccer is played in the rain. No thunder predicted. If the rain is not too bad, hope that we can get a game in.

Bring a white shirt and a dark shirt (never a grey shirt) and come for a good run on Sunday. Hope to see everybody.

We had a nice turn out last Sunday at McCarthy Middle School turf field.  We will continue to have out pickup games there for the summer in an effort to save wear and tear on Murphy field (grass).  So, lets meet again this Sunday at 9AM at McCarthy Middle School (see directions menu item for a map).  Bring a white and dark shirt and a friend.  All are welcome.

Well, it should be a perfect morning to play some soccer on Sunday.  Because the water sprinklers went on in the middle of the game last week, we will be moving to McCarthy Middle School turf field this week. If you get there and the field is occupied by someone else, head on over to Murphy and we will deal with the sprinklers.

See you at 9AM on Sunday.  Bring a white and dark shirt and plenty of water.

Sunday should be a great day to play soccer.  I hope you can all find a few hours in your busy Memorial Day weekend to have our pickup game.  See you at 9am at Murphy field.  Remember to bring a white and a dark shirt and plenty of water.

Just a reminder that we will be playing at Murphy field for the remainder of the spring.  The field looked good last week.  We played about 7 v 7 last week (Mother’s Day) so expect a few more people this week.  See you at 9am for a good pickup game.  Remember, bring a white and a dark shirt so we can even out teams.

In an effort to promote peace and accord in the households in and around Chelmsford, remember that this Sunday is Mother’s Day.  That being said, I can think of no better way to honor your mother/wife than to quietly sneak out of the house to play soccer and let her get that extra sleep she deserves.  None of this messy breakfast in bed stuff.  And who needs brunch when you can take her out for a nice dinner later in the day.  So, come on out Sunday morning at 9am to Murphy Field to join in a rousing game of pickup soccer and let your loved one sleep.   Regarding the field, CYSA has given permission for us to use the back field at Murphy.  It supports a 11 v 11 game which is good since we have just about that many players last week.  See the menu item above for directions to the field.  And please bring a dark and a white shirt so we can even up the teams.  See you there!

Tomorrow 4/24, should be a really nice morning to play a game of soccer.  See you at 9am at Harrington school field.  Bring a white and a dark shirt and a friend for a fun scrimmage.  I think it is safe to assume we will continue at this time and location until informed otherwise.  So, if I don’t post to the blog in the following weeks, just show at the usual time and place and have a nice kick-around.
