Old Boys Div9 2014

[Ernie Cooksey]

As we gear up for another few months of shenanigans, to kick it all off and ease into it, on Sunday 9th March, MJAFC will be hosting a light hearted social 5 a side tournament for o35s only using the inflatable pitches used for our annual Phoenix Cup tournament.
The format and structure will be determined by the amount of responses received. I will be contacting various clubs through different means but thought this is a good place to start.
There will be an entry fee of $50 per team, in order to cover the cost of the pitch hire, and various avenues are being pursued to organise a prize of some sort. Full bar and barbecue will be provided.
Anybody interested in putting a team in, please pm me here.

[Fact Hunt]

I'm sure the Downs Fossils would be happy to join in - pm me the details.

Can't you lot just stay away and give someone else the chance to win something?

The 5 a side comp is slowly coming together, a possible list of teams so far looking like:
Old Jets
Really Old Jets
Westies
Whyalla
Brahma
Gully
Downs
Easties
Inter

Haven't been able to get on touch with vale or grove so far, if anybody connected with any team not mentioned feels like putting an old boys team together, let me know.

The idea is for this tourney to become the curtain raiser for our season on this long weekend every year. It will be a chance for the whole league to get together, mingle, share contact details for the upcoming season, and generally just get to know each other better and have a few beers when it's all finished. It will only ever be light hearted, and in the name of fun. Sponsors for prizes are in the pipeline, but for this first year, we will just concentrate on the organisation and success of the day.

Anybody else wishing to enter a team please get in touch.
Anybody over 35 not attached to a team that wants to have a laugh, get in touch and we may be able to make a team up from those individuals. Bacon??

[Delete Your Account]

I'm not over 35.

[Black_Panther]

Imagine that!

You old codgers could get your prostate examinations more regularly then!

[Ernie Cooksey]

I'm not over 35.

I could just remember you expressing an interest in the comp at the Fed ground a couple of years ago that fell through. And you do actually comply with the rules of our league, being over 30, so if you are keen for a giggle and a few coldies, we should be able to fit you in somewhere.

I'll be over 35 in about 2 months.

So I'm happy to be a fill-in if needed.

Trust me Bacon would fit perfectly into an Over 35's set up for those very reason.

[Ernie Cooksey]

Decision has now been made to allow clubs to enter more than one team if they wish.
11 confirmed now.

[Pooraka Sałt]

Since when couldn't they? Mount Barker had two teams in saturday division six in 2009.

what's that got to do with the Modbury Jets O35's tournament?

[London Hearts]

He must have mistaken it for the SAASL allowing clubs to have more than one team in division nine.

The Downs Fossils are looking for a trial on the 16th March. Anyone interested?

The Fossils are supreme athletes you should know that. So don't doubt yourself. No problem. Might be a bit blotchy for a few days but after that no worries.

[Ernie Cooksey]

Teams confirmed for carnival:

Jets OB 1&2
Jets ROB 1&2
Whyalla
Gully
Easties
Westies
Downs
Vipers
Inter

Still to hear from Whyalla, Vipers and Downs re number of teams entering, but have at least one confirmed for them.
Will wait til this weekend before finalising numbers, leaving a fortnight to plan.
Structure and comp rules will be issued to individual clubs early next week.

[htfac]

Only one team from the Downs.

Send your details to Blueblood (Mod Jets O35's) and list your achievements.

A few tips: beer drinking is one of the biggest attributes he looks for in his players.

[sin²x + cos²x = 1]

You could probably say that about most O35 teams.
