Lafortezza

I'm in for Monday, 8pm in rivervalley community centre right?

tsuzmir

acc grinds

Any idea how many we have tonight?

josvill2010

Should we send you an email directly to you with our phone number?

Lafortezza

Confirmed so far for today July 30th at 8pm,

Lafortezza
Flexicon (?)


Others who said they were interested but not confirmed for tonight yet:
opcowner2007
ladybball
ButtersSuki
A_fella_called_fish (away til mid-Aug)


Personally I'd prefer at least 8 people for a 4v4 game, also does anyone have a good quality ball they can bring?
And can anyone point to where the hall is on google maps or something? I don't know Swords too well!

acc grinds

Lafortezza

Is this going ahead with just 5 people? Might be best to leave it for a week and see if we can get some more interest.

Felexicon

Well next week is the bank holiday so court will probably be closed. I'm happy enough to play with 5 tbh. a bit of 2 on 2 with a sub after every few minutes

Lafortezza

Ok, I think I'll give it a miss this week, definitely up for Monday bball in future though, would just prefer at least 4v4.

josvill2010

I will be there.
@ Fortaleza. Can you ask someone to come?
@ Felexicon. Good, we can go easy the first day and build slowly

ButtersSuki

Strong! They have a beast of a low post player think a 16/17 year old ricardo leonard, along with 3 other decent low post players along with some quick smart guards.

Guessing your from St. Marys or Kestrels. Just so you know I'm not biased as I'm a Tralee man just play pick up with them during the summer. :P

You'd be guessing right(which one you ask), well that I won't disclose Does the team consist mainly of first year u18? And also did Swords compete in the u18 competition last year? How would the rank against the other Dublin clubs, Kubs, Killester etc

Xrox

Honestly I dont know how many of them have been on under 18's last year but swords always has a decent under 18 team. Which usually has some of the better younger player playing up an age group. So I'd say at least the starting 5 would have previous experience at under 18 level.

They are a strong dublin club one of the top 4 usually. They had a poor showing at the Billy Kelly this year which they had a great chance of winning. But they have addressed the mistake they made (so the coach and a few of the player told me when i was last talking to them).
