Is there a player limit these days? Can't seem to find a number anywhere...

BTW great game yesterday, first tiem in ages, really enjoyed it.

football 17
* People who sign up and don't come are literally stealing fun from their fellow expats.
just sayin (again) ....

Enjoy it! I hope for you that 15 people actually show up even though 17 people and two maybes have rvsp'd.

I also hope that no-one shoots it in the river!

last week,

someone mentionned the possibility to play on a grass field.
He apparently knew many places, e.g. in Sihlcity

is this dream coming true ?
(it would also be a chance to get more players and less injuries )

18 signups!

Coming soon - Sunday football organised off-site by invitation only.

yep, that was me.
Sihlcity might be an option but those fields are full for the most part and they have league games on the weekends.

Here are some other options close to the city:

1. [47°21'22.90"N / 8°33'17.06"E] this is a school yard and they have small goals. [Seefeldstrasse & Alderstrasse]

2. [ 47°23'5.73"N / 8°32'50.57"E] public field. they have small goals [Culmanstrasse & Stolzesstrasse]

3. [ 47°21'43.33"N / 8°31'29.74"E] public field. they have small goals [Bederstrasse & Klopstockstrasse]


I am sure there are million of these around the city. I may not be around for too long so someone needs to lead this.

cheers,

have changed to maybe! my bad for signing up, new to the forum.

Don't worry.. you were not the FIRST one to sign up after the 15 person player limit had been reached.

Welcome to the forum!
Check the thread every day, it could happen that a few people drop out on Sunday (depending on what they did the night before ) and you might get a shot to play.

What is the standard like? Do you guys just have a kickabout or does it get a little competitive?

Thanks.

Or if you kick it in, you man up and go in after it, and then play on for an hour in your freezing cold shorts

Look, I've been coming to this event for a bit now. Let's not get too carried away with regulating 15 people coming. We've recently rarely had a group of more than 15 show up, and most of the time it's been a smaller-than-signed-up group of individuals.

It's too hard to monitor who actually signs up and then bails, let's just use common sense and make sure that there's no more than 15 signed up on Sunday morning (i.e. tell those oversubscribed not to bother coming). Overall, this 15 player rule has for the most been a non-issue, let's just use common sense, best not to get our panties in a twist over this.

especially when 17 becomes 13 in reality

you are so happy to have football games very often in Zurich, but in Geneva, fewer and fewer
