We have to be better than this in the 2016 season!

With the 2016 season nearly upon us let's have a quick reminder of how we did last year!  I know we can do better than this and with a strengthened squad I think it will be a great season!

NEXT GAME; Sunday 17th April vs North Haven

Another season beckons with our first game of the 2016 campaign away to North Haven!  The game is a 10 am kick off but I'm sure Ronnie would like most of you there early to warm up. In other news Celtic will play The New Rangers in the Scottish cup semi final tomorrow morning 7am kick off. Hopefully I'll be in a good mood!!


Field direction are below;

RIDGE ROAD ELEMENTARY SCHOOL:
1341 Ridge Road, North Haven, CT
I-91 North or South to Exit 10 (Route 40, Mount Carmel). This will put you on to Route 40, "the connector" (to Route 10). On the connector, take Exit 1 for Dixwell Avenue, Hamden. At the end of the exit at the traffic light turn left. Go to the next traffic light and turn left onto Hartford Turnpike. Proceed straight through the next traffic light, which will be at the intersection with Dixwell Avenue. Once through this intersection, continue straight on Hartford Turnpike for approximately 0.8 miles. Near the top of the hill there will be a blinking yellow light. At this light turn right into the back entrance to Ridge Road Elementary School. The field will be just ahead on the right and you can park anywhere along the driveway. 

MATCH REPORT; Madison Celtic 1 Clinton Over 30's 3

A great game against a strong Clinton over 30 team resulted in a 3 to 1 loss for the Celts but they could hold their heads high after a spirited performance. It didn't look like it was going to be a fun match after the Celts lost two very early goals to rusty play. But they tightened up their performance and a great move involving Johnny B and Tano resulted in a debut goal for Ravi.
The game was a very even affair right to near the end when Clinton slotted a great third to close out any chance of an equalizer for the Madison team. As a pre-season warm up it was a very useful exercise.   Great to see Alex, Eduardo and Edimar back playing for the Celts. Was also great catching up with  ex Madison legend Flaco!  Carlos was playing defence for the opposition and still looked like he could play for the over 20's!

PRE-SEASON IS HERE!!

OK guys it's actually time to play a real game of soccer! All your months of training and abstinence are finally going to pay off when you run out on to the field tomorrow at 11am for the first pre-season game of the year! We have a good squad of around 13 guys to play the Clinton over 30 team at Indian River Recreation complex.

Bring your normal Celtic gear plus $5 dollars for the ref

11am kick off so get there a bit earlier to show off your  well earned new abs to the team!
