Södermalm vs Årsta on Friday

Söder takes on their southern rivals Årsta in the next round of the SAFF Premiership. The Swans showed top form in Sweden Cup recently where they not only beat Söder but also went all the way to the Grand Final. Looks like the Blues are in for a thriller.

First game (Årsta vs Söder) kicks off at 18.30 at the J (Skarpnäck)
Second game (Solna vs Norrtälje) starts at 20.00

Söder make it 4 in a row (by Tanka)

After a very good start to the season, the lads from Söder knew there was only one possible outcome, and that was proven from the start. Söder dominated possession in the first quarter and probably should have been further ahead had they made the most of their chances. They went into quarter time only 16 points ahead.

The second quarter was a bit different, kicking with the wind, Söder piled on 5 goals to 1 to extend their lead to 37 Points.
During the 3rd quarter, Bromma made the use of the wind to narrow the gap to just 26 points at the final break. However Söder were simply to good in the end running out 37 point Winners in the end, 15.10.100 to 9.9.63.

Major goal kickers for Söder were Mick Larsson with 5 and Johan Dahlberg with 4. A good all-round team effort though in the end with every player making a contribution.

Next week sees Söder head to Jönköping to hopefully be yet again crowned champions of Sweden as they lock horns with teams from all over the country.

 

Södermalm hit the ground runnning (by Kaj)

The first match of the season 2014 was an anticipated one! Södermalm faced the 2012 premiers Bromma Vikings on a cloudy and cold Saturday. After a long pre-season the Söder boys were fired up and ready to go at first bounce.

The game started off with both midfields fighting hard to get the upper hand. Söder was kicking with the wind in the first quarter and soon put some pressure on the Bromma defense. The nerve settler for Söder came about 5 minutes into the game when Kaj dribbled in the first goal of the match. The strongish wind on the JCG helped Söder to an easy 5 goals to 0 lead by quarter time. Continue reading

Södermalm looks for greener grass

Last weekend in April was also, in a deeper psychological sense, the first weekend of early summer for the blues. Invited by the Dockers together with the Årsta Swans to Norrtälje, the three teams concluded the pre-season with a mixed-team friendly. The Dockers impressed, as always, with exellent grounds and facilities, but more importantly, the conditions were perfect for a light game of footy. Given the season premiere is already next weekend, it came as no surprise that the three teams were holding back, avoiding injuries and not revealing their true colors unnecessarily. Dockers coach Ryan Tucker, however, declared that he was optimistic about playing already after the summer break, despite still jumping on crouches after breaking his ankle while skiing during winter. Only Söder’s president cannon- ball-Kaj, who allegedly rejected taking a ride out to Norrtälje and instead took the 100km to the coast-near city as a triathlon practice run,  went full on out on the pitch, resulting in a single-accident smashed nose.

Next week is the season premiere for the SAFF league. Stay tuned for updates!

Söder bites the dust, again

Despite the fact that it was Tanka’s 50th game Söder fell short in the Grand Final for the third year in a row. Again we ended up minor premiers but couldn’t go all the way and win the Grand Final. It was a tight and physical game against Solna and although Söder were winning on the field it didn’t show on the score board. With 28 to 20 scoring shots in Söder’s favour, it was Solna’s accurate kicking that earned them the title. Despite a great performance by the team this season we have to wait until next year for another premiership. Bring on 2014!
Let’s kick off the social season!

Final score:
Södermalm 7.21  63
Solna        15.5  95

Söder to play Solna in the Grand Final

It was a perfect day for football when Solna and Bromma clashed in the semi final. A very tight affair with never more than a 2 goal lead for the first 3 quarters. In the last quarter Solna with a bigger bench managed to extend the lead. Bromma fought back at the very end and the game ended with Solna 3 goals up.

The Grand Final between Söder and Solna will be played at 15.00 on Saturday the 21st at the JCG.

Blues beat Vikings by a goal!

For their Viking AusKick day Bromma had kindly invited the Söder juniors to take part. Hugo, Leon and Alex turned up and had a great session together with the Bromma juniors. Gills, Pat and Rappa guided the young football players practicing handballing, kicking, picking the ball off the ground and all the other drills the big boys do. They finished off with a scratch match before enjoying the post game BBQ. The kids had a great time thanks to a great effort by all involved. The future’s looking bright for footy in Stockholm.

Söder hold on to beat Solna (by The O-Train)

In the first match at Friday’s double header at the JCG Söder got back at Solna for the loss before summer. With both teams missing players at the European championship in Dublin the game turned out to be a close battle all the way through.

Söder opened the scoring but Solna fought back in the latter part of the first quarter and were ahead at the first break.

The second quarter opened as badly as the first ended for the Blues but the tide again changed and Söder got back in to the game after being able to keep the pressure in the midfield and scoring a couple. Continue reading
