What gets twenty men around fifty from around the world, all with different amounts of
sporting experience, skill levels, backgrounds, expectations, personalities and motivations,
in stifling heat or driving rain, often sore, tired or injured to some degree, to gather week
after week and go through physical and emotional highs and lows for seven months of the
year?
The answer is on the pages of a publication you are about to read. It is an attempt to capture
not only the events and facts but the spirit of a season playing Masters football. Every team
at this level is of course slightly different and have their own paths, quirks and personalities
but probably share a lot with the story of Murdoch Melville University Football Club
(MUM FC) 45+ Green team.
The story is for mature eyes only and please excuse the odd remark, expletive or image in it.
It is however a raw, honest record of a football season painted through a series of WhatsApp
posts, game reports and rounded at the edges with a bit of humour and poetic licence by
one of the protagonists.
