Our youth soccer leagues get started today on a blustery spring New England day, and a friend uses the occasion to send the following note to our cadre of adult referees:
I know some of the kids think we are "old farts" but this article from the BBC is interesting, especially on a "windy" day in Newton. Sunday League football in England is the equivalent of our Over The Hill Soccer League. Enjoy.
