Historical Match on Monday, July 4

For the first time in the history of this game, we have a true grudge match. Here is a portion of Wasim's email that made this match a reality:

  I suggest a contest between under 30 (white) vs over 30 (dark)

I remember there being more to it when I read it originally, but it is what it is. Many large events started with a simple sentence. World War II, for example.

Hope you can make it!

Weekend games?

Never before in our storied history have we experienced a mix of cold and snow for such an extended period of time. We have had an unprecedented 3 week gap in games during this 2009 - 2010 season. I am posting this to gauge interest in matches this weekend.

My recommendation is to skip Saturday, but play Sunday at 3pm.

Please let me know your thoughts and, if possible, leave a comment if you are interested in playing on Sunday. I will post something here on Sunday before leaving for SMW if the game is on, or earlier if it is apparent that there is not enough interest to get in a match.

Of course I am always available via phone, text, or email (send me an email if you don't have my phone number and want it):

Welcome

The game first began in late 2000. The match has been played at various locations throughout the greater Kansas City area, but is most identified with Youngs Park.

A running list of ongoing kick-arounds will display on the right. One-off matches will have a special designation and will not show up on the running board.
