You might have to give us a bit of background on the league

Well, Once upon a time there was a Mercantile League run by the Wellington Soccer Association. There were 4 divisions playing a league and a cup.
A few years ago the Mercantile League broke a way from Capital Soccer who were then running the competition.
They changed their name to the Wellington Sunday Soccer League and continued to play on Sundays with 10 teams.
NOW the competition is being run by SportZone and the competition has 9 teams (1 more would be great - see below) (3 more would be fantastic) playing a league and a cup competition. Teams are based around the Wellington area and come from Porirua to Rongotai to Upper Hutt and Wainuiomata.
The league is loosely structured to allow any players to participate with the only requirement for Cup eligibility being at least 1 league game.
1 more team would be great for the competition and 3 more would make it even better with the ability to split into 2 divisions. Any players or teams wishing to participate can find more information at www.SportZone.org.nz

So, I scared them off. We did have a kick around with the 5 that arrived before me.
 
We got the points, thats the important thing.

Big top of the table clash next week at Kura Park...

..incidentally, has anyone else seen Kura this season ?  I played there a few weeks back and it's huge.  Almost square, has to be the widest pitch in Wellington.

What happened to Harcourts Accies? Or were they in another League?

Apparently I'm apathetic, but I couldn't care less.

Harcourts didn't want to play as the age restriction does not apply to this league any more and players from any league can play, so I was told.Forty and fifty year olds  running after 20 year on a sunday afternoon, NO THANKS ChopperHarris2007-05-24 23:01:15

Like they could talk... they quite happily dragged players  sons in from high profile Saturday sides.

The Wellington Sunday Soccer League never had an age restriction. Just like the Mercantile League before it. It's not supposed to sound like a bunch of young guys chasing a bunch of old guys, there is a ball involved and I hope that everyone is chasing that. Some teams are just better at keeping it than others.

...it's no co-incidence the Trentham form slump co-incided with my injury... yet today they return to the winner circle.

(okay it may well have been a co-incidence).
