Football kickabout wanted!!!

Hi,

I am from Ireland and living in Zurich and one of the things I miss most from home is having a football kickaround once or twice a week. If anyone organises a game once or twice a week in Zurich let me know as I would be very keen to play, would also be interested in joining a team etc...

Cheers

Cathal

I would also love a kick around - even an informal one in a park... maybe the one by the lake at Bellerive some weekend?

www.footylist.info will give a clue - but the playing season's nearly over - unless someone has contacts for a sports hall

Oh Lob, you've obviously been here too long: "the playing season's nearly over"!

A kickabout sounds just great - no need to organise a sports hall, pay fees etc. I'd love to join in, if anyone wants a donkey on their side, that is

Coats for goalposts?

A top idea ; a regular catch-up on one of the weekend days would be awesome and even though back in AUS we call it soccer - I am keen to play!

Re: Football kickabout wanted!!!

There is already a regular game around Sallesporthalle - Lob has the details. I was always playing there, but had to stop when my German class took the same evenings.

However, as pointed out, the guys who play at Salles are about to lose their pitch. They lose it over the winter during daylight saving. We need to try and figure out somewhere else to play. I've seen heaps of fields when going on runs around Oerlikon/Seebach. I'd imagine there are better places, more centrally located.

Re: Football kickabout wanted!!!

Would it be too much if I start a cricket (with tennis ball) thread? I am dying to play cricket.

I know at least one guy (doesn't come on this website) who'd be very keen for cricket. He complains that the nearest organised team is in Winterthur or something.

Of course you can start a cricket thread. I started this thread back at the dawn of time, but got no responses.
