Ok, so here is an update about possibly joining a Men's Soccer league in the Fall.
If enough people are interested, we can definitely form a team.  I figure we should have at least get 15-16 guys, that way we have a few subs and still be able to field 11 in case a few people cant make it, etc.  Also, the more people we get, the cheaper everyone pays.

-I dont have any exact numbers on how much the team fee is, I am still waiting back for the details. 

-Since we would be a new team, we would start in one of the lower divisions of the league.  I dont know if anyone has ever played in a league before, but its one of those deals where if you finish at the top of your division, you move up, if you finish at the bottom, you move down.

-Also, a pretty big issue to consider:  It looks like a majority of the teams are in the NYC area.  There are a few teams in Westchester, but it looks like a majority of the away games would be in Queens & Brooklyn.  I hope that when the divisions are made, they consider geographic areas to match with teams, but that can't be certain.

-Games are played on Sundays, mornings and afternoons.

-We also have to designate our own home field.  The Westchester Parks & Rec. office said that to rent a field would cost $150 for 2 1/2 hours.  A field they recommended was Tibbet's Field in Yonkers.  I can also contact a few ladies that play in the Westchester Women's League and gather more info on the fields that they play on (Silver Lake Turf Field, Pace College, just to name a few)

-Also, we would need our own jersey's.  I would imagine we would try to keep it as cheap as possible.  I know we can get t-shirts made up for relatively cheap, and we can also try and get a team sponser.  I know that Brazen Fox in White Plains sponsers the White Plains Women's team, maybe they would be up for sponsoring a Men's team as well.  Just something to think about.

I attached the link to the League below.  All in all, if we can get enough guy's I think we can make it work.  I know there were a couple e-mails replying with a yes to playing, so if you are still interested, could you please send another.  I just want to get a rough count on how many would be interested.  If its over 11, then I am going to send in our form. 

Like I said, As soon as I find out about the exact team price, I will pass it along.

If anyone as any more questions or anything, feel free to ask.

-Phil
