Kanto Celts are the most highly rated underachieving soccer
Team in the Tokyo metropolitan area. The Celts are not just
a football team but a social institution. Careful co-ordination
behind the scenes in kantoceltdom allows the stars juggle
football and fame in the face of various adversities like
work, women, alcohol and Eugene's ad-hoc nights out. With
the bosman ruling strictly in force here in Japan the Celts
have enlisted the services of overseas talents from as far
away as Russia, Canada, US, Ireland and the other country
next to it. Within the ranks we boast a Harvard Lawyer, Westlife
reject, zoolander himself and Roy Keanes' friend (on first
name basis). As the most recognised team in Japan and possibly
Asia-Pacific, Celts spend much of their time on tour to places
like Phuket, Nagano and Izumo representing Ireland and anything
green. Kanto Celts are always on the lookout for new talent
to nurture and strengthen the defence, midfield and strikers.
All Nationalities Welcome! In fact if you are any good at
all and can handle the lifestyle contact kantoceltsfc@yahoo.com

Orchard Rovers Young Ones, first participation for this team
from Singapore.... “Orchard Rovers FC” was formed
in 1998, when a bunch of overweight drinking buddies decided
it was time to show the girls that they still had a bit of
class. Steve Watts, Toby Trotter and Mark Sorgo (the founding
three) set up six-a-side games every Wednesday night for five
years. Such was the popularity of the six-a-side that they
decided to try their luck at 11’s. Needless to say they
didn’t fair too well, they didn’t realize how big
the pitch was! So after a few more friendlies and the recruitment
of some younger stock they decided in 2004 to join the Espzen
Midweek League…..more of this later.
Now, the team name: …..not to be confused with the infamous
“Orchard Towers” or is it? In fact, the boys have
so many watering holes along the Republic’s World Famous
“Retail Mecca” that “Orchard” was a no
brainer and “Rovers”?.... well they Rove around
Orchard I suppose.
Anyway back to the squad, which has an age span of some 40
years and is made up of some of England’s finest sales
people…… 4 x personal financial advisers, 4 x time-share
specialists and to top it all, the boss is a car dealer. Name
change - Dodgy Rovers??????.........(see as below)........

ORCHARD
IPANEMA ROVERS FC
(Singapore)

Country: Singapore
City: Singapore
Team Color: Red
Captain:
Players: International...
|
|
............. The team is sponsored by “National Forwarder”,
a company owned by Indian/Singaporean committee man and Super
sub, Rajoo. The committee is made up of Steve Watts, Rajoo,
Dave (I am only 58 honest) Rowe, Kev Do-Lally, Simon Cook
and assisted by our social and travel secretary, Hastings’
very own plastic-scouser, Matty “Doggers” Smalley.
And so on to the Espzen Mid Week League. The games are played
every Wednesday/Thursday to ensure maximum revenue is earned
for the “stock-car racing track” of an excuse for
a pitch we play on. We are lucky though as lighting, is usually
provided by three light bulbs and twelve candles (subject
to availability and/or matches)!
In season one, we finished mid table, but collected the dubious
reputation as the league’s hard men, coming 55th out
of 56 in the overall fairplay league. Season Two so far unbeaten
after 5 games and looking strong: the discipline has been
sorted and we are now feared by all other teams. What makes
us special?..... Camaraderie, loads of “banter”,
unquenchable thirst for beer and we tend to fight and squabble
with each other so much, you would believe we were all related
and from the Isle of Man!
Anyway, it’s our first time at the Phuket 7’s, although
we have all tasted the delights of this wonderful island in
the past on many occasions. We have entered two teams Orchard
“Romeo” Rovers FC and Orchard “Ipanema”
Rovers FC. Club Slogan: “GET UP EM AND AT EM”

Racing FC, first participation for this team from Singapore.
Established in 2002. Originally known as Sunsports the team
was 5/6 regulars plus whoever Peter Koh found during the week
to make up the numbers. Features of the early side were ;
pre match coaching given to some of Peter's less able signings
on how to kick a ball more than 1 metre; attempts at communication
(often the signings were not speaking English nor Chinese);
hunts for a kit (we didn't have one); no refs, opposition
or available pitch.

Sexy Football Club Beijing. Established 1996. Sexy is a club

from all corners of the world. The club began in 1996 attached
to the Hilton Health Club in Beijing and made IFFC history
conceding more goals in the first season than any other club
ever. Since then we cut out the beers at halftime and the
large guts have been complimented by some lads with talent
who spearheaded our meteoric rise to the Beijing IFFC first
division. The ethics of the club have remained the same: mates
and beers first, an extensive overseas touring schedule and
sexy birds and sexy football.
