    sorry if this shouldn't be here, I don't have access to the soccer forum.

    I was wondering if anyone knew any teams on the north side of the city if possible who would let me train with them? I had a bad injury about 14 years ago and gave up the game and haven't played since, I decided I'm going to get back into it and hopefully take up a spot on a sunday/non league team or maybe a lower league team.

    As I said I'm not looking for a spot on the team, just to train with for a year or so or untill I'm fit enough to play.

    I'm 28 if it makes any difference.

    How many nights a week do you train Sav?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 8,323 ✭✭✭Savman


    Just once a week until July, then twice a week until the Winter, then once a week usually on Thursdays on Astro.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 6,081 ✭✭✭LeixlipRed


    Cheers. It'd suit me while I'm living in DCU but I'd be back to Leixlip in September. I'll think about it anyway.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 8,323 ✭✭✭Savman


    Well we're just getting together once a week for a light session and game on Thursdays for the next while in Poppintree Park. If you fancy comin along just lemme know anyway, it's open to new lads comin down for a kickabout.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 6,081 ✭✭✭LeixlipRed

    Might drop up myself one of the nights if thats alright??

    Severely unfit at the mo due to beer & smokes, but would give me a good excuse to get the fitness back up!!!

    Not a bad player though, if I do say so myself........ (usually play up front)

  • Registered Users Posts: 750 ✭✭✭rovers2001


    Sure is.


  • Registered Users Posts: 750 ✭✭✭rovers2001


    It is savs team but not his post i am the manager of this club and am looking for players for next season.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 41,926 ✭✭✭✭_blank_


    Yeah, fair enough.

    I think some of the lads were talking to Sav about it already, no harm to post here too though :)


  • Registered Users Posts: 750 ✭✭✭rovers2001


    Cheers.......its tough trying to entice players this time of year and with an abundance of clubs in this area its hard to get lads to come to your club.We have a couple of ads on various sites for players so with a bit of luck might get a couple of decent players.For anyone who is interested we are meeting every thursday in poppintree pk at 7pm for a light training session and a game of ball to bring us up to our pre season training which starts in july just to keep the interest going for the lads.All welcome.


  • Registered Users Posts: 10,472 ✭✭✭✭guil

    You should print up a couple of hundred leaflets and drop them into the houses and apartments on St. Margarets road, I'm sure there are a lot of lads living there who've moved from one side of the city to the other (like myself) and don't have the time or energy to travel from work to the southside to train for a couple of hours before slogging back across the city to their house.

    Do it sooner rather than later though, Ballymun Uniteds pitches are going up there on that road and their making great progress with it.


  • Registered Users Posts: 750 ✭✭✭rovers2001


    Hi Iago.
    Yeah not a bad idea, yeah there is alot of new houses and apartments up that direction and im sure maybe alot of decent players so maybe worth a try.Maybe your interested yourself pm me if you like or check out our website you might be pleasantly surprised.

    I'm still debating whether I really have the time to commit to a team to be honest. Up until 2 years ago I was playing LSL Intermediate with St. Josephs Glasthule in Senior 1A/1B. but then injuries and work took over and now I'm two stone heavier and going backwards!

    If I can find the time to get 2-3 nights self-training in and build a base prior to pre-season I may well get involved, but it's up in the air at the moment.

    Definitely think hitting the apartments and houses is an idea though, there are hundreds of apartments and houses, if even 5% of those have lads who can play at a reasonable level you could be looking at enough players to start another team let alone shore up the current squad.
