To give you an idea, Galey took the session, and warmed us up gently, gave us a few coaching tips about the way to play this particular version of footy, then we played 3x 10 minute 3-a-side games. The "bibs" team brought in a ringer at the end, some bloke called Lee Bradbury, who scored enough goals for an honourable draw.
It is skilful and difficult - you always want to run, or make that killer through ball for the man to run onto (doh!). But mostly great fun and good for some entertaining banter, although my legs are killing me tonight.
It is £10 to join and £3 a session thereafter. At the moment it is only on Thursday late morning (11-12), but Shaun was saying he hoped to get an evening session on either a Wednesday or Thursday for those over-50s still doing that "work" thing, and there's a possible few games in the Emsworth World Cup (
) on (I think) 5th October.That nice Mr Gale even gave us a cuppa afterwards as well, and in return we got to give him some tips about how to run the first team, which I'm sure he'll totally ignore if he's got any sense.
It is also the only way us humble fans are likely to get on the hallowed turf without having to wear a mankini. We got a bit of insight into the "behind the scenes" life at WLP as well. But most of all, what a lovely surface it is to play on, beautiful.
And Mr JCWM too! Half the squad is made up of forum regulars. Totally agree, a really good idea, great fun, and good exercise. Baz and Mark C, you would enjoy it. How about Shaun Stenning too? You must be over 50 by now
