Regs! Yep. Been coaching, playing, working and trying to complete a Masters at UBC. So I've been lying low in regards to TTP.

Vancouver based Metro Women's Soccer League Select Division team looking to add players for the upcoming season, particularly for the positions of goalkeeper, defender and forward. UEFA qualified coach, two training sessions per week and a team that is both fun and competitive. Please contact...

Well, speaking hypothetically, as it is unlikely this will happen... theoretically, where there is a will there is a way to change to any format the clubs want. The league would need to set out a plan to restructure at least one season before it actually happens. Simply put, an agreement would...

I think Sandbagger's idea is a good one - it sounds more like the CAT system as it was originally intended by the person that came up with it (Ole Qvist). By the way, the CAT system was not based on professional leagues - it was based on how it's done in European amateur leagues. In Ole's...

That's interesting because Columbus Clan were able to call on Garret Kusch (registered as a B level player) for Nationals. Certainly this is a precedent for Premier Division clubs to use in future. If their CAT teams are registered on B forms then they should be able to call them up for...

Gomesy, I have sympathy for your situation. I have managed and coached a reserve team like your CAT in a league (just below semi-pro) here in the UK for 4 seasons. It really is a thankless job. However, I do still think there is merit to the CAT system. I was involved with Bombastic and...

Cheers Dezza and BlazeArmy. Does that also mean the Premier Division is going from two groups of 7 to one group of 12? Ever since they split the CAT teams off from the rest we've had 30 or more Div 1 teams. In my opinion this has been the cause of the general diluted level of play...

Sorry I've been away for a while so I've missed something in the conversation... I've gone from being The Insider to The Outsider actually. I gather there has been a divisional shake-up (or there is going to be). However, there isn't really anything on the VMSL site that explains it though...

Colin also ran for a seat (as NPA) on the Vancouver Parks Board in the last municipal election. He ran exclusively on a getting better playing fields. He only missed getting on by a few votes. If I recall he came 9th and the top eight vote getters were elected.

If you want a dictionary definition... Bombastic (adjective) - Pompous or overblown. ...but that describes almost every team that posts on this board...:o

What can I say? 8-3 combined in three games this year. No doubt who was the better side... and you did it without this GodLike character ever showing his face. I now think he's just a figment of someone's imagination. Anyway. Bombastic will bounce back. Since 4th and 5th in Div 2C will move...

Not an April Fool's Joke Dapotayto? GodLike? Is there anything that you'd like to tell us? Perhaps about why the VMSL web site has not yet acknowledged you as Div 2C Champions on their web site? ...and a certain decision made at the VMSL Board meeting last night? I only think it's fair that...

Here's a question for you NSU's boys. I've played against Primos and JB's with Bombastic 3 times each in the last 2 seasons and they have both been among our toughest opponents. I just can't understand with all the talent (both playing and organizing) at your club's disposal why, oh why...

CAT vs Non CAT I agree with Hammer... mostly. The problem started when the league moved to 14 teams in Premier. But that had nothing to do with CAT teams. They wanted to include the best two teams from the Valley (Abbotsford and Surrey United) and to get the agreement from VMSL clubs they...

Well I'm terribly hurt now.... Bombastic don't drink after games?? Such short term memories. I won't pretend that we booze it up more than any of you lot (Westside C-men are easily King in that regard anyway) but we have a very generous beer sponsor in R&B Breweries and we have shared our beer...

Div 2C Bombastic A 4 Champlain Heights 2 Champlain didn't even look like they were going to show at all until about ten minutes before kick off. They were going to start with 8 but their keeper showed up right at kick off - so they were up to 9 at from kick off. A tenth showed up about 10...

Yep... just checked... got'em right here!

I just printed out the forms. It will take a couple days for it to reach you by Canada Post.

New Cup Schedule Well the league has done away with the round robin groups... so you all need to revise your predictions for the Cup. I might as well have a go at it too...just the first round though. Preliminary Round Game 1: Bombastic FC ‘B’ vs Lobbans ‘B’ : Even though Bombastic B...

Fields So it is now official on the excellent site... NK vs. Westside Knights ppd PG vs. Bombastic ppd But the Cougars vs. B United and NS vs. Champlain H. matches are both still on. I hope bloody Chumplain fields a team this week!
