2009 Wellington Club Advice/ Suggestions Thread

As I have just finished school.. I also have to now decide on which club I would like to join..
There must be plenty out there in my situation to..

Does anyone have any information on each club, such as prices, pitch locations etc..

This is open for anyone too. not just me.

Guess it depends what level you're aiming at. Doubt that most clubs now know what their subs are going to be, but I'm guessing it'll generally be $200+.

You can find the pitch locations on the Capital Football website.

My aim is pretty much top level.

Well you won't get anywhere with your new boots. take them back and replace them with Puma V.108 Tricks. Then go join a decent club

That has been a very tempting part for me. I am swaying towards united

Just you'll get to play with me.

Awww... Do you you play first team?

ha.. ill try to find out more about joining..
The website is piss poor.

Also keep an ear out on the Under 21 leagues coming this year. Good chance to get some extra game time in. I'm just playing socially with mates in 12th Div but looking for a challenge with some guys more my age...games are on Sunday's too ;) Means I can look after your mate Oska on Sat morning, play Sat and Sun arbo's...BRILLIANT!

I just figured out who you are..
Oskas coach!

Oh goody. More games. The pitches are going to be in awesome condition in June/July.

it needs Membership info.
Thats all i really want but no sites give you any.

Err, who kind of info do you expect? All the clubs are in the off-season atm, and it's also the holidays...If you're interested in 1st team football, whore yourself around (i.e. email/phone the clubs you're interested in) after the holidays, otherwise there's plenty of people here connected with pretty much every club in the region, so just PM them and they'll be able to sort you out once the pre-season mode gets underway.

...tell him he's dreaming.

There is barely any info during the season anyway..
I havent played for a club in nz before.
aus clubs give you all the info on their websites all year round..
I dont know anything about wellington clubs, and there are alot of people my age too who want info easily available.
I know people who have given up on football because membership info isnt easily available.
So I think I am justified.

Like I said, all you need is to contact the club/s you're interested in, and tell them what you want. Membership is generally not on an on-going basis, i.e. you register to play for a club for one season, and if you want to do it again the next season, you re-register.

Most clubs in Wellington are roughly geographically based, so you can choose a club that's near where you live, or where your friends play, or whatever. People who run the clubs have jobs and their lives as well, and the season is months away, so can't expect all the answers for the upcoming seaon right now.

If you come to diamond rightstr may even let you become an honourary ball boy for a nix game

Maybe next season. I'll give him a try out at a Central league game first.

That would be nice.. Im too old though I think.
I am swaying more towards wellington united.

Don't put him down my end

Im not a defender so dont worry dale.

As a ball boy i mean

Ah.. Ouch then

Be a waste of time having you as a ball boy down Dale's end anyway Stefan. Ball boys' job doesn't entail picking the ball up from inside the net.

Ill sort him out.

Yer but i only have to do it 1 or 2 times a game.  Not 8 times.

poor granville.
