OT: Hockey players needed please pass along

November 16, 2007

Hi,

We have pick-up games of gym hockey twice weekly.

We play in sneakers in a gym with plastic sticks and felt pucks. There is no

checking, and protective gear is optional. Most of us wear eye protection

and street hockey gloves. Some wear carpenter knee pads so we can drop to

block shots and kids' soccer shin pads as well.

We play at Willamette Athletic Club (on Macadam in 's Landing) on Wed.

evenings 7-9 and Sunday mornings 11-1. We have been experimenting with

Saturday mornings 10:30-12:30 instead of Sundays so I can go to church and

ask forgiveness for my behavior in the previous game.

As many of us belong to other health clubs, the WAC gives us reduced rates

at about $35 per month as we only play twice per week, and we agree to not

use the provided towels and toiletries.

If you know someone who want to play, look us up on the web at

www.gymhockey.com (the site is being upgraded this weekend but is still

works and where I am prominently and notoriously displayed as a veteran who

still scores occasionally).

You may also contact Dr. Rick Brinkman, N.D., our " GM " at

rick@.... We take an email census 2-4 days prior to each game to

make sure there are 8 or more people to make teams. This way, no one drives

from some forsaken outpost (Gresham) to find out that the game was called

due to lack of interest.

We have a bunch of Russian guys, a bunch of naturopaths and students, we

have had gals play in the past, but alas only one chiropractor.

Lots of fun and a killer cardio workout.
