FreeFA tournament

Wednesday, July 8th, 2009

freefa in 2008

Remember, tomorrow (Thursday 9th July 2009), 15:00 to 17:00 ¹, is FreeFA.

Join in at around 14:40-45, join us in front of the main University Building. We’ll get to the pitch by foot.

Summing up:

  • Bring your football kit (trainers, or moulded shoes, shinpads)
  • Bring T-Shirts of different colours (at least a clear and dark one)
  • Show up at 14:40

The teams haven’t been set up yet, as we don’t know whether we’ll have smaller goals available (it’s currently setup as a full-fledged 11-a-side pitch).

If you show up late, you won’t be able to play…

¹: Might last a bit longer

Monday, June 29th, 2009

Every year brave players from the 5 continents gather together to define who’s the best in the deadliest sport there is: soccer.

While in its already various years of existence the FreeFA cup haven’t yet taken any victim, we still like to think it’s quite dangerous and brave to play.

If you would like to become part of history books and be admired for generations yet to come, sign up now in the GCDS wiki (registration required on the main page).

Pack up your shinpads and football shoes, plus one or two colours of shirts you can sweat confidently.

Teams and time will be sorted while on the island.

Dear Bastien, I’ll be waiting for you to organize FreeFA

Thursday, May 28th, 2009

My dear French Colleague Bastien (FCB? Wait, what? Is he hiding something?), I’m glad to accept a bet that I have (and had even before the game) already won.

Anyone interested in FreeFA (our annual soccer match) keep an eye on Bastien’s blog, he will be organizing it :-)
