Footy is back for 2016!!

Pre-season training has started and what a great turn-out it has been! The Kaj man is in charge of making old players and new recruits fit for the season.
We’re training on Sundays, contact the club for more info. Bring some cold weather gear for a warm up run outdoors before training indoors. Bring any mates too – training is free!

2015 Fixtures and trainings

The calendar is now updated with our preliminary 2015 training and game fixtures – check it out! http://www.sodermalmafc.se/fixture/

HOWEVER… please note that training times are are still not confirmed and kick off times for some games are not confirmed. We are also looking to add a second training time, possibly a joint training with Stockholm Dynamite (preferably on Thursdays but this is also subject to the other clubs and location of the trainings).

Trainings in March/April will held on Sundays at Globala Gymnasiet (Hornsgatan 93, 117 28 Stockholm) but bring your outdoor gear as we will hold the trainings outdoor if possible. If the weather is kind enough we might also add on outdoor midweek trainings in April.

If you are interested in joining us for training to try out Aussie Rules – or if you have played before and want to pull the boots on in Stockholm, we would love to see you at trainings! Email the club at sodermalmafc@gmail.com or just turn up to Globala Gymnasiet for training at the above address according to the club calendar on this website!

Tjo!

President’s Newsletter March 2015

The season proper is drawing closer and the Södermalm players are sweating out every Sunday evening (and most likely other nights as well, going for runs on their own initiative, isn’t that right guys?)  as the pre season preparations are in full swing.
Today, Saturday the 21st March 2015 is only 5 weeks out from Södermalms first official game. That’s right you read that correctly only 5 weeks! It was hoped that pre-season would have moved outdoors for tomorrows training session but we have been thwarted by the weather. So for the time being the pre season training will continue as before:
Sundays @ 17.00, Globala gymnasiet, near Honrstull Tunnelbana station.
Contacts: Mick Larsson – 076 279 96 14 or Kaj Karlsson – 073 073 26 25
This in turn brings a close to the always well received off season social events.
The club will round off March with the Annual Registration night.
WHAT: Södermalm AFC Registration Night
WHEN: Friday 27th March, 7pm (19:00)
WHERE: O Connels Pub in Gamla Stan. http://www.oconnells.se/
 This is great opportunity for players, both past and present as well as our valued social membership group to meet all our new recruits as they get their picture taken with Bluey. As per usual the rumour mill is reporting all sorts of information about Bluey Svenssons attire for the evening. Even thought it is most likely that Bluey will show up with full playing kit the club would prefer it if attendees come in at least a button up shirt and preferably a club tie.
Club Ties and Stubby holders will be on sale for the night and if you forget to bring cash any purchases can be made by bank transfer to the clubs BankGiro.
Please contact the club if you are planning on attending as we have booked a preliminary number of 20. Current members have already received an email about this and a reply YES or NO is required as the club will need to adjust the number of booked seats at the venue.
Memberships for 2015.
NO changes to membership prices this year.
Full Playing member: 1000kr
Student/Unemployed Playing member: 500kr
Social member: 350
Payments are preferred via the clubs BankGiro accout number. However, in an effort to simplify payment of membership fees this year the club will be accepting SWISH transfers to the Presidents Mobile number.
Joel Burnell: 0738 341 357
As an extra incentive, anyone who has paid their membership before or on registration night will receive a free stubby holder OR club tie.
Looking forward to seeing you all on Friday the 27th March.
Go Blues!

Trainings (again…)

Please note the following information from Coach Angus regarding training in the coming weeks (we’ll try to keep the homepage updated but until we get our regular training running in Skarpnäck times, dates and venues may change).

Gents,

As discussed on Sunday, and for those that could not make it down. We will run an outdoor training session on Årsta backfield on Wednesday 16th April @ 18:00. (Wednesday was selected down to a majority vote…it is for this training session only)

Bring your footy boots, a water bottle or 2 & for those that have not trained here, there are no showers!  

By public transport, you can take the Tvärbanan & get off @ Valla torg…then walk on over (click on the link below).

Aim to get there 5-10mins before hand so we can get started @ 18:00 sharp.

Looking forward:

  • There will be no training on Sunday 20th April due to Easter/Påsk vacation
  • We will resume again on Tuesday 22nd April @ Årsta backfield @ 18:00.

Please let me or Kaj know if you can not make it or if you need directions to Årsta.

Thanks
Bull 

Trainings

Pre-season trainings are held at Globala gymnasiet/Zinkensdamm (Södermalm) on Sundays 16.45-19 until the end of April.

We meet up at the gym at Globala gymnasiet (https://www.google.se/maps/@59.3166049,18.046786,17z, closest Tube stop is Zinkensdamm) at 16.45 and head down to Zinkensdamm IP around 17. If the weather’s bad we hold the training session indoors at Globala gymnasiet, so bring both indoor and outdoor gear!

New players are most welcome.  Or maybe if you just wanna  give aussie rules a try and meet some friendly faces…

Regular season training at the JCG (Skarpnäcks IP) will be held on Tuesdays 18.30-20.00 staring the 6th of May.

See ya!

Enjoy your vacation…

…cause next week we kick off with the second half of the SAFF 2012 Premiership.

Södermalm training will start again on Tuesday the 24th of July at Årsta, 18.30 as usual.
The first game after the summer break is against Solna on Saturday the 28th of July. The venue is Årsta and the game starts at 11.00.

Check your calender

First of all, for players and for those of you who might be interested in testing what so fun about aussie rules, during summer we are Wednesdays, 18.00 at Årstafältet.

Söder footy trip 2009. Special guest, the SAFF trophy

Secondly. Free Sat Aug 13th, as Södermalm is playing Falun in Falun! We will be leaving Stockholm around 9pm, Make sure you can come along. We also need 2 or three cars to get us there and back!

Third. The footy trip is locked in! Cheif executive travels – Tanka – decided on Riga, Latvia. When asked about his decision he said – “well, the rich culture and cuisine of the baltic region has always attracted me, plus a jug of beer is less than 20kr” As every year, Södermalm reached out to local footy clubs to try and arrange a game during the weekend, but as there are none, ultimately failed. Proximity of KFC to the hostel is under investigation. Book your ticket now and let Tanka know!
