If the over 50s men can have their soccer tournament then so can the over 60s.
Sparked on by the success of the over 50s Fame on Main soccer tournament, Rich Grubb decided to try out the over 60s version and it worked out just fine.
The host team, Central Jersey Masters, won the highly competitive tournament in Cranbury against teams from Connecticut, Pennsylvania and New York.
After winning their group, the Masters played CT 60s in the final and with goals from Gaetano Messina, Felipe Laspisa, Big Dan Sewell, Roberto Calzadilla and an own goal the Masters comfortably won the game in style after racing to a 4-0 halftime lead. Grubb expects more teams to join the fray next year and is excited at the prospect of serving as the host to two prestigious adult men’s soccer tournaments in Cranbury every year.
The Cranbury Soccer Association which sponsors both tournaments, has three adult men’s teams, two over 40s and one over 50s.
If anyone is 39 or older has some soccer experience and is interested in joining the Association, contact Rich Grubb at (609) 915-8197 or [email protected].
