Same as 2019. Back in 2019, we limped out of the Summer league in Gateshead and did the same here. Two positive performances and two negative ones meant we had one…

And repeat. Logistical nightmare for Sassco. And this time it was a race in Newcastle which caused four of our players to be missing. We’ll skip over the part where we…

Six years since Sassco 11-a-side finished off a 2019 Summer League with a 6-2 defeat. Only McConville and Sangha remained for this new setup, against our regular rivals, MADAS. We hadn’t…

Indoor and outdoor games arranged. Thanks to Stipe Bjeliš, President of the local league in Zadar and the initial contact, Alen Juričić, we have two games arranged, likely on Thursday 1st…

Indoor game arranged at Športsko rekreacijski centar Mocire. Delighted to say that our first opponents have confirmed a game in Zadar in May 2025. Futsal Liga Zadar are an organised football…

Itinerary updated with tournament and Swedish League game attendance. Our little jaunt to Stockholm is getting close, so we’ve come up with an itinerary. Times are conformed for most events (thanks…

Very pleased that our opponents have arranged the two venues in Stockholm. This is going to be for our game on the Saturday morning 11th May at 11:00 to 13:00 –…

Three wins out of three. A strong line up saw three outstanding teams, while the previous winners were rock bottom. Sassco opened with a heavy defeat v South Shields in the…

Our esteemed opponents on the Friday night in Amsterdam are SV SDOB. They are predominantly over 35 players and were confirmed Champions in their recent leagues. In the final round of…

Scotty Wright; gone too soon. Really sorry to hear that an old mate, Scott Wright, has passed away. Scott, his brother and a regular set of lads were the first organised…

The traffic beats the Tash, and a 5-1 defeat. Sassco traditionally had a huge pre-season programme – sometimes up to 10 games. We usually played higher level teams, but always enjoyed…

“There’s nee one here!” …said Bunta in an SMS message which even looked angry. Luckily for him the players were there, he just didn’t know them. Most of the players didn’t…

Over 60’s superstar, Nelly Richardson, fires in a (geri)hat-trick. Only 5 players remained from our previous, resounding 8-4 win over AFC Washington. This time we were playing on Washington’s favoured day,…

Best performance for a while. Our third 11-a-side game was rapidly coming up and the squad was a bit up and down. We had entrants, then drop-outs, and with temperatures heading…

Murton sells his team name, but remains triumphant, despite conceding a penalty. As Fusion were out, the way was clear for Shakthar Sunderland to clean sweep the August Tournament, which was…

Shakhtar Sunderland win the Season 22 February Tournament at Downhill. Sassco ended as a regular league on a cold, wet and generally miserable day back in 2011 at the Downhill Complex,…
