I do have a nice scar on the side of my leg from playing defense a few years back, but in that situation I was wearing guards and the stud just missed the edge and took a chunk out of the side of my leg. Taped it up and kept playing of course and man was that ever a fun wound to clean when I got home.

If I can fit them I will bring them, but I doubt I'll have the room.

Oh, I also meant to ask, what color are the jerseys going to be? Hate to wearing complete clashing shorts/socks and look like a tool. Because looking like you know what you are doing is way more important as we all know :)

Due to the logos we have for the players team the shirts will most likely be white or light grey. As an effort to look better as a team I'd encourage everyone to do their best in securing white shorts to match, as we'll only be providing the tops.

Perhaps this is something you guys can discuss with your team organizer :)

And the goalie jersey will be white/light colored as well? Just wanting to make sure as goalie I usually try to wear a color that stands out from both teams on field as to not be confusing.

The keeper jerseys can be a different color if you want. Just not Yellow or Black. Just let me know if you prefer a certain color.

Would orange or blue be possible? Dangeresque, what would you prefer?

Red, orange, and green appear to be the only colors available. If you have your heart set on a different color I can pursue it, but it would be nice if you could name one of those three as plan B :)

Do you know how hard it is to find white soccer/athletic shorts when, in America, it's basketball season (coming up on baseball season too) and all those shorts are meshy trash? That's it, that's all I got. See y'all in a little over two weeks. >:{D

Hehehe, goalie... not wearing white shorts :) Now I just gotta dig up my bright orange socks... I meant to look for a pair of white shorts, but never actually got around to it.

Let me know whatever it is you end up deciding to bring so I can bring the same.

Just a little update. The most voted on name as I was getting the tops ready was Ballgorns. The wonderful logo was designed by Rixx Javix. It was only fitting that the players' team logo was designed by a player.

As the order had to be put in, I got a list of sizes from Jon, your wonderful team organizer. As such, it is a bit late to sign up, as there won't be any spare tops. If you are interested in playing feel free to be at the CCP office around 6pm, as there may be some last minute cancellations to free up a shirt. If that happens it would obviously be great to have stand ins.

The tops are white, so please try to acquire some white shorts or pants to match. It's not imperative, but would look a lot nicer if you guys didn't wear mismatched shorts/pants :)

Now, this is the important bit! PLEASE BE AT THE CCP OFFICE WELL BEFORE 7pm. I'll have a little signup sheet to get people in, and we'll leave as soon as all players are on board the bus, and this will preferably be before 7pm so we have some warmup time.

There will be other buses for more players, as well as buses for devs. We'll do our best to fill the stands!

If you can, please spread the word. The more players show up = the more fun we'll have!

ANNOUNCEMENT:

The players' team is being financially sponsored by our wonderful CCP Customer Support department. Bringing "customer support" to a whole new level. Spread the word on that as well, so the GMs can feel the love!

We'll also be giving away a 28" 4K monitor by ASUS at the event.

Beer is not allowed inside the arena, unfortunately, but there will be some on the buses to and from the venue, as well as outside in the wonderful weather.

This is wonderful news, and thank you for the update! I cannot say how absolutely excited I am for this match. I actually was able to get out and get new boots, guards, and gloves for this match. Thank you so much, CCP Puck, and the Customer Support team for all your hard work for getting this organized. Also thanks to Rixx Javix for the shirt designs!
