Last summer cleared a ball off my 18 yard box just outside took a huge bounce just outside the other box went over the keeper
I acted like I had meant to do it as the other keeper was getting a water bottle

I once hit a left foot volley into the top corner of the net from the right hand side of the box. A bit like Nolans against Blackburn but the opposite side. That was just one of many great goals I've scored in my career.

is it european, hispanic, or american players mostly?
Here its mostly hispanic with a few europeans and a couple russians
make for a interesting style of play No, there isn't really an "ethnic" feel to the leagues I play in. I think those teams tend to play in more competitive male-only leagues. As far as great personal moments go, personal favorite might be where I chipped the keeper with my first touch and it was photographed by one of my teammates. I've scored some good free kicks too. I usually play defense though so I don't get many opportunities in front of goal. |

Yes, you have to play with 6 of one gender and 5 of the other. |

I am too old to play 11 v 11 In 35 and up we play 8 a side on a 70 yard pitch In co ed they play 7 a side on a 50 yard pitch can be very fast paced with good players |

I only started playing when I was 21 or 22 so I would have been over my head in the men’s leagues . I’ve been playing with the same people ever since. There are some talented female players in fairness. I’ve played in a few of the men’s leagues and it seems like a lot of people take it way too seriously. Lots of bitching and bad tackles and refusing to sub out, etc. In a couple of years I’ll probably check out the over 30 leagues. Wouldn’t mind playing in those while I still have my speed. |

Sorry but is football not competitive If players make bad tackles you need to take it up with your ref dont mean to sound like a dick but I am one of those people who take it very serious and dont want to sub and skill is way more important than speed in the older divisions If you are fast with little skill somebody will nock you on your ass |

That would be a great consolation if I'm being stretchered off the field. |
