Fair dues to you man.
It sounds like you're getting really invested and that's fantastic. Playing in a team is brilliant and new friendships will blosom and you'll feel much more part of the local community.
As regards me, I'm not sure if to just stick with the golf or have a crack at U42s football.
It would be fun for sure, but the potential injuries would really put me off.
At least with golf, it's still competitive and injuries are pretty much non existent.
