This is a summer-only pickup game. Check back in late May or early June for the 2026 schedule. In 2025, we played at 6:00pm on Tuesdays from June 17 through August 12. The default location is Poker Flats fields (https://maps.app.goo.gl/R2VLm7Y9ADRWp6Qi8), but if it is especially rainy and muddy, we may occasionally move Williams College's Farley-Lamb Field (https://maps.app.goo.gl/Y9NnAztBSE9L96yW6), Williamson Field (https://maps.app.goo.gl/GZHajd9cERtAj2KdA), which are both FieldTurf fields, or on the grass fields behind the grandstands for Farley-Lamb field.

Instructions on how to join are available here: (https://support.google.com/groups/answer/1067205?hl=en#). In Google Groups, you need to change subscription to "each email" in order to receive the emails, and you might need to check your spam folder and tell your email client not to treat the messages as spam. Players include a mix of of Williams College students, faculty, and staff, and various other community members. All are welcome, and we usually include a bit of instruction before each game to help newer players get up to speed. To play, all you need to bring are a dark shirt and a white shirt (so we can tell who is on which team), ideally some cleats (but sneakers can work in a pinch), and plenty of water.
