Södermalm win again

Sunday arvo footy saw Söder take on a depleted Årsta at the J. It also saw the return of last years league Swedish b&f Mick, the new and improved medium Dave and first gamer Martin.Martin kept tradition alive by kicking a goal in his first game and ended it with 4 as did medium Dave who looked unstoppable, nearly taking a mark from his own kick. Miguel got thrown into the forward line to snag a couple as well.

Special mention to the guys who helped out Årsta and gave us a good game, O train dominated as usual and Rob, Carson and Bull had plenty of it as did the one quarter specialist Murf.

Final Result: Södermalm 14.10 94  vs. Årsta 6.4 40

Söder build for future victories at JCG

So it was said, so it shall be cemented into the ground!  With those epic words club life honorary member Danne Jordansson, project manager, kicked off the working bee session to lay the foundation for the new footy field in Stockholm. The Södermalm working company consisting of  diggers “Nate dog” Natis,  Berger and Tarzan, completed by turbo mixers “Big boi” Brad and “the O-train” Oscar, all supervised by quality assurance officer Larry Lethal, took the opportunity of a short break in the seasonal monsoon to dig holes and filling them with the 2 tonnes of concrete needed for 8 goal posts.

When the flag poles – sorry – goal posts are up, we will be able to say that we have the best oval in the SAFF leauge. Stay tuned to come and see your favourite team at the JCG!

Söder inspect new field

The new pitch at Skarpnäck have some advantages compared to Årstafältet. Just to name a few – 10 or so changing rooms, functional toilets and showers, full time greenkepers and possibility to play up to 16-aside. This year, söder will play its home games at Skarpnäck, save for double headers. Goal posts are not up yet though, stay tuned for a working bee training session under the competent supervision of Daniel “byggare Bob” Jordansson.
