loup Posted May 31, 2006 Share Posted May 31, 2006 Last year a good friend - my godbrother- Peter Mintsioulis started a soccer team in the Industrial Soccer League of London Ontario. A chance for some of us old guys to start playing again, have fun and get in shape. 2 Team Rules: 1. Only Greek players allowed on the team 2. No bitching at each other That is about it - unfortunately many of us had not played for years and we struggled through a 0-23-3 season. But we led the leauge in fans, cheers, and beers after the game. But now in 2006 with a little lost weight, experience and some more players we are 2-4-1 and in a tied for 5th out of 8 teams in the 3rd division. The reason I have written this post is to see if anyone else is part of a similar Greek team somewhere else in the world.

Guest Originalgate21 Posted May 31, 2006 Share Posted May 31, 2006 Here is boston, we got a quite a few greek teams. I play for Boston Olympiakos which has been a dominant team in Massachusetts and at the National Level. This league is the best amateur league in the state where alot of semi pro and pro players have come from this league. Boston Olympiakos is also currently playing in the US National Amateur Cup. Weve made it to the Region Semis (National Sweet 16). 4 years ago we made it to the National Final 4 in Orlando. You can check the league website at www.mssleague.net You can check standings and scores of us and other teams. You can also check our website at www.bostonolympiakos.com and see our history and all accomplishments. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hammarby Posted July 10, 2006 Share Posted July 10, 2006 Never played for a Greek team, was close to go to Macedonikos of Rinkeby Stockholm, but couldn't cope with mentality of the players (after just one friendly game). But here is a link to a team I just found: http://www.olympiacos-fc.se Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
