Regular Games

Hi Folks,
For the new folks who are finding us for the first time via this Blog let me just repost the basics:

We play every Friday at 16:30 and Sunday at 16:00. We play at the International School for Kenya (ISK) on the upper field. Its a very casual pick up game and its all about fun.

Its an informal coed game so bring your friends...the regulars will teach you all you need to know at the game. To get to ISK take Poponi Rd from Westlands toward Spring Valley. You will go past Thigiri Ridge Rd ...continue straight up the hill. You will come to a cross road with Ngecha....go straight. after about 1km you will see ISK on your right. Don't go into the main entrance. Instead keep driving straight (stay on the paved road) and follow the wall of the school up the hill. You will have to park on the outside of the gate (should be other cars there on the left). Head into the gate and walk to your left. you will see a playground before some fields....we'll be on those fields.

All adults are welcome!

Look forward to seeing you there!
