Here is a pic of our soccer game in winter months[ hockey size nets ]. Most of those guys are over 50 Winter soccer, eh- Good stuff! I do remember pick up hockey games on the lakes and ponds and city park rinks, but not much soccer back then in the stone age. Got the scars and the bad knees from it.- played goalie a lot because most of the "kids" were older and skated faster. They used me mostly for a target I think. That was back in the day of no masks and curved sticks were just being thought of. The pucks would lift fast and high. Aah the good old times- so glad I'm way way past it, and all I have to do is stay away from gators and cotton mouths when on the water. Maybe there is a compromise place somewhere, but i haven't yet found it. I toured the smokies just recently looking But it kept catching on fire. We drove through more smoke than I ever did at New Hampshire. One place some of the fire dropped off the cliff above the road onto the lane going the other way. It was like a flaming nest of fire falling. I had just wondered aloud - " is that fire right above Us I can't see can you?" and plop fire in the other lane. Okay then lets keep agoing. We did some of Georgia, North Carolina, went to The Cove - Billy Graham retreat - to see Fernando Ortega concert there. Nice place, great people. Anyway it is going to reach 80 degrees here on the Suncoast today, perhaps I will get up to the nature coastline Suawannee River to see a house on the river there. Hey, just what is it like to do a header at frozen landweather? Bet that smarts a bit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hey, just what is it like to do a header at frozen landweather? Bet that smarts a bit. Great adventure there Neighbor. Actually, when i first started to play soccer with these guys about eight years ago, i thought they were nuts to be playing soccer in winter and especially with the white stuff on the ground. But they have bee doing this for more than forty years and the play on mon-wed and saturday as a must. It is surprising that the ball does not pickup snow and get heavy, as i guess it is kicked around a lot and if you keep moving you do not feel the cold at all, if fact you get to love it, plus falling in the snow is not worries. I will be going out today for our game. Lots of snowfall yesterday, so it will be our first ice game for the year. We are the only guys as far as i know who play soccer in the winter season, but it is great fun and keeps us active. Heading the ball is normal as in summer, but not much of it as accuracy would be limited there. Thanks for posting your adventure, i enjoyed reading it.

Spent the first 18 years of my life in this small, but lovely country town ... or city in NH as we have a whopping 13,474 population! The area is growing in technology and healthcare (Dartmouth Hitchcock Memorial Hospital), making the number coming in to work somewhere near 25,000. Laconia is still a hoping place during bike week, though it not as popular as it once was. The "outlaw" biker clubs have all but disappeared in recent years. Being a country type of state, not much ever changes. Personally, I am a climber (sport and traditional climbing) and see mostly the vast wilderness and do my best to stay out of the cities.
