Practice | 6 v 6 coverage

Especially for those competing next week in San Diego, don't forget about practice tonight, 8 PM, UCLA ... most likely Drake Stadium. For those not coming to San Diego, I will be updating the blog remotely with results from the 6 v 6 charity tourney. The schedule for the tourney is now up.

We are in men's open class which has been split into two divisions of three teams.

We only have two regular games ... the first is Saturday at 9 am and the second is Sunday at 8 am.

If we make top two we advance to the semis ... if not we play in the 3rd place consolation round. Either way the games are 11 am on Sunday.

The final is 3 PM on Sunday.

All fields are turf ... except if we play in the consolation (that field is grass)

On the tourney site you can see the full draw here:

ACFC Celebrates Silverware

Many thanks to Billy and Ben, both for the great team party over the weekend, and -- more importantly -- for creating a football club where friendships and off-field events are just important as victory on the field.

This past season we were blessed to have both. Everyone keep fit . Ben and Billy will announce new practice times soon ...
