Men’s 5s took a 3-3 draw from Saturday’s tussle with Sheffield Bankers, once again providing the warm-up act for our first team, who will have picked up a few hints and tips from our freestyle champagne hockey. Unlike the 1s we seldom manage “sixty seconds’ worth of distance run”, and every game is a mix of “triumph and disaster”, but there’s never a dull moment. This was only our second draw of the season Read more
The mighty Phowars, pumped up by a 9-0 win last week, travelled to Chapletown to take on their 3s. We knew this would be one of our most difficult fixtures, but a must win if we are going to win the league and gain promotion. The game started off with some slick passing from Chapletown, showing why they are right up at the top of the table. Chances came and went for them in the Read more
The club sent out 14 senior teams into battle this weekend, over the course of 2 days. 9 home games gave the Adel faithful plenty to support, cheer and with over 50 goals (plus one mysteriously chalked off in controversial circumstances in the big game of Sunday) the orange goals of the Adel astro were given a serious test.

Saturday saw the arrival of a strong Hallam team with Adel giving a very warm welcome to their new goal keeper Matt Cooper by sending him into the Hallam dressing room after Jimmy assumed he was part of Read more
After writing the match report from the reverse fixture (available to purchase – just message my PA), it’s safe to say this is just as gruelling a task as before. Summary from reverse fixture: Jackson missed an open goal, we were pag, snakes everywhere, terrible formation (the one everyone else uses)… This time strimmer managed to bag a meal deal from work and make it prior to kick off, despite Adel 2s Demi god (rich Read more
As I drove down the sunny M1 on a Saturday afternoon munching away on my Coronation chicken sandwich I kept asking myself what this mysterious Wakefield team had to offer. The team we resoundingly thumped 7-0 in the home leg of the fixture yet had beaten one of our title rivals and drawn with another in the past two weeks. The secrets were soon to be unearthed. Turns out I took too much time wondering Read more
