Vets

The Veterans section is able to field Veterans Mens and Mixed teams. Whilst the age range is between 35 and 65 years old the predominant age band is 45-55 years old. The Vets group is made of many nationalities. Whilst there is no longer a Federated Veterans League in Portugal there is Vets practice every week thought the year with regular games against visiting Vets teams from outside Portugal. In the main we have hosted visitors from UK, Germany, Switzerland and Holland.

We are particularly keen to play touring sides to Lisbon either on a bilateral basis or round robin of 3 teams. It is difficult to accommodate more than 3 teams at one time as we have only access to one astro pitch. Nevertheless we have run 6-a-side tournaments in the past.

This year we received visits from Cronkorken, Greys, and Oranje-Rood with trips planned from Rapid Gorinchem and St. Pauli.
