Well, today may be the finals for the World Cup, but for us, it's still early in the season.
Welcome back after your week off!
Best of luck today!

Thunderstorms Expected, but not till AFTER Game Time!
06.27.10
Hey Ladies - Looks like we could be in for a great afternoon of soccer!
We seem to be expecting thunderstorms later today, but not till 5 pm or so.
Hopefully they'll hold off till after the games so that you can enjoy the view from the comfort of your own homes.
Jacquie is away today, so in the event that there is a last minute cancellation look for an email/phone call from your captains instead of checking the website (though Jacquie will try to post from afar if she can).
Have a great day of soccer, and remember there are NO games next weekend following Canada Day.
CLOUDY WITH A GREAT CHANCE OF SOCCER
06.13.10
Hey Ladies - the forecast is calling for cloudy skies, but no thunderstorms and the fields should be in decent shape, so let's plan to play today.
Check the schedule to confirm your game time and we'll see you out there!
TODAY'S GAMES RAINED OUT
06.06.10
Thank you for checking the website for an update about today's games.
Unfortunately, the high volume of rain that we have had in the past couple of days have left the fields pretty messy and so today's games are canceled.
If you're looking for something else to do with your Sunday afternoon, check out Open Streets Hamilton (10 am - 3 pm James Street North from Burlington St to Cannon) or Buskerfest in Dundas.
Looking forward to some sunshine next weekend!
GAME ON!
05.30.10
What a great day to kick off the season! The sun is shining and it's nice and warm!
Please refer to the schedules (on the menu above) to see what time you play.
Please remember to wear athletic shorts, soccer socks, shin guards, and soccer cleats. Remember to leave jewelry at home and come out ready to have some fun!
Bring some water along, but preferably in a reusable water bottle to save on waste. If you bring a disposable water bottle, please recycle it :)
Looking forward to a great season with all of you enthusiastic Sistas!
Best of luck!
Schedule is Up!
05.12.10
The schedule for this season is up, though there are currently some errors in game times which will soon be fixed.
For now, if you're looking at the schedule, the first game of each Sunday will be at 3 pm, while the other two games will be at 4 pm (the schedule for some says 5:30 pm, but this is INCORRECT).
If you have any questions or concerns, please feel free to email me at jacquie@sistasinsoccer.com

Sunday July 26th Rained Out!
07.27.09
My apologies for the mix-up this past rainy Sunday. Unfortunately, I wasn't able to contact everyone to let them know that the games were canceled.
In the future, you should be able to check this website to see whether the games will be played or not (should be posted by 1:30 pm).
However, if in doubt - show up ready to play sistas-style!

See you on the pitch!
June 28: Game On! (At least at this point)
06.28.09
Despite the dampness outdoors today, please arrive on time (or early as usual) for your games.
Any call to cancel games will not be made until game time (unless there is thunder & lightning in the Gilkson area).
Bring a towel to sit on while you tie your cleats, and you should be good to go!
See you on the pitch!
So far so good!
06.21.09
Judging by the sunny skies out there, let's assume today's games are a go.
Please arrive at Gilkson as you usually would for your games.
Unfortunately, if the fields are too wet, the decision to cancel games will not be made until game time. An effort will be made to contact teams playing at 3 pm, but those scheduled for 2 pm will find out as they arrive.
Let's cross our fingers for (reasonably) dry fields so we can have another great Sunday of Sistas soccer!
Exhibition Game CANCELED
06.20.09
I'm sorry to say that today's exhibition game is CANCELED.
The fields are just too wet to play on today.
On the bright side, Gilkson Community Council will still be hosting a BBQ up at Gilkson park with burgers & hot dogs from Lick's. If you're still available and don't mind braving a little rain, please head over to the park to say hello and show your support.
Please plan to play our regular scheduled games tomorrow - if I have any further information, I will post it here and send an email.
Great Start, Sistas!
05.24.09
Wow! What a great start to the season!
We had gorgeous weather for our first games and a great turnout.
Captains - please remember to submit scores after games to keep our standings up to date.
Players - feel free to encourage friends to continue to join. We can still add ladies to our teams (ask them to put your name, first & last, as their code word), and once we're full, we'll start a waiting list.
Looking forward to next Sunday's game!
