totbl 90 Posted 25 September 2020 Report Share Posted 25 September 2020 I'm in my 30s and not played football properly since I was in uni other than the odd 6 a side here and there. I used to be alright and my fitness is ok. Wanting to get back into it in some level, what's sort of level/standard is best? Looking to play with people who don't take it too seriously but are competitive and aren't bellends kicking each other for 90 minutes. I don't think that exists in Sunday league but maybe there's some decent 7 or 8 a side games somewhere? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I'm old enough for vets football (over 35s?) and had half fancied checking out a vets team ..... I'm guessing vets are half decent ex players and not clod hopping parks football nutters or, even worse, young lads who are good and quick as shit and likely to make a monkey out of me Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I'm 33 but maybe still could sneak in. Looking at normal Sunday/Saturday local leagues on Facebook etc. it doesn't look appealing - just want to have a good kickaround and a laugh Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Paninistickers 2,146 Posted 25 September 2020 Report Share Posted 25 September 2020 There's a vets league of about 7/8 teams from memory. Googled it in summer and half thought about posting on here to see if anyone played in the league Quote Link to post Share on other sites
