DiS 11-a-side football // Sunday 31 January // 12 PM

Islington Tennis Centre
Market Road
N7 9PL

After our first Reds vs Blues game descended into farce after a faultless first half display, we have decided to change everything. So we have a different, award-winning venue, a different, i.e. earlier kick-off time and different, but still fabulous looking teams. Please taken note. At least we get to play during daylight this time. The sun may even shine. And we can spend the rest of the afternoon in the pub, watching FA Cup delights such as Carlisle United v Everton and MK Dons v Chelsea.

The usual blurb:
- we play on a full-sized astro-turf pitch
- changing rooms, showers and toilet facilities are available
- 15 min walk from Holloway Road tube station (Piccadilly line), 20 min walk from Highbury & Islington tube station (Victoria line, Overgound) or 10 min walk from Caledonian Road & Barnsbury London Overground station
- bus 91 and 259 from King's Cross stop around the corner on Caledonian Road, bus 274 (from/to Islington Angel and Camden) stops in front of the ground
- arrive at 11:30 AM for warm-up, tactics discussion, pre-match fags, team pictures, etc.
- kick-off at 12 PM sharp
- full 2 x 45 minutes and injury time + 15 min break
- one team will play in red shirts, the other in blue
- everyone can participate, the skills on display are wide-ranging
- final teams will be announced in the week leading up to the game
- 5 pounds each will be collected on the day
- post-match analysis in the nearby Hemingford Arms pub

Come on, you know you want to. Put your name down by replying below.
