23.01.2022 Hello and I hope everyone has had a great 2021 so far. The new semester is upon us at last and a new chapter of Soccer Appreciation Society has opened up yet again! We have decided to make membership free so feel free to sign up as a member here by filling up the Google Forms: https://forms.gle/2QzEUE1rAWE36G7JA... TLDR: We'll hopefully be having weekly football matches on the hockey pitch as usual and all for FREE so why not join and fill up the form now! There is really no harm in signing up early, it's FREE. We'll also have some cool online stuff too. For more specifics: With the COVID restrictions finally easing, the plan is to: 1. Hold weekly football matches on the hockey pitch in campus This is our main activity and we are working on securing weekly 7v7s matches on the hockey pitch in campus. It would be a 2 hour session as usual and I hope that it all goes well. Everyone who enjoys a bit of football, please join in - it's a good way to make friends. 2. Continue our online activities as well on Discord! We also will hold more online activities for those people who are unable to be present for our offline activities. Our main channel would be Discord (link here: https://discord.gg/AcYNWn9) where we'll talk about football and discuss if you're Ole in or if Manchester City is going to run away with the title again. We'll also have cool activities like football games watch-together, FIFA tournaments, football quizzes and more with great prizes too. We did so last year and hope to do more this year! So that's about it: Please feel free to message us through Messenger, email or even Discord if you have any questions. Hope to see you guys soon! PS: You don't need to be a Unimelb student to join.

23.01.2022 Hello, I hope everyone is enjoying their sem break so far after a difficult Semester 1. I'm here to address how our club will be run in Semester 2. Last semester, we could not run a lot of our weekly football sessions due to the unfortunate pandemic and we are really sorry for that. To those who signed up last semester, your membership will last the whole year and to those who have not signed up, membership is free of charge for this semester! To those who want to sign up an...d was not a member last semester, please do so by filling up this form. https://forms.gle/sdtX6ZYoJFcThhnx6 If we are allowed back onto the pitch, rest assured that there will be games held once again as normal. However, until then, we shall run some online football activities/games with a lot of prizes to be offered. The early plans is to have watch-together football games on our Discord, football Kahoot trivia and online FIFA competition in the future. To those who have any extra ideas, feel free to message us on what you want the club to do. All our activities will be posted here and on our discord, where its link can be found in the information section of our Facebook page. At a time like this, it will be great to have a group of people just talking and discussing football or anything really and our relatively new Discord group is a great place for it. It needs people to grow so I hope everyone can join in. Thank you!

20.01.2022 Hello, a short update here, can people please whitelist our email ([email protected]) from the emails they used when signing up for the club? Please check for our messages in your spam folder and unmark it as spam please. We don't email you guys often to be intrusive but we will send important emails, like events and our AGM details which is very important for our club to survive next year where we can hopefully hold football matches for you guys again. As thank...s for doing so, we are looking to hold a trivia night with prizes in the coming future so please stay tuned to our Facebook. Thank you once again.

18.01.2022 FPL GW 3, a very good week for anyone who brought in penalty takers into their teams and a bad week for anyone who brought in Son and De Bruyne. Nirdesh still leads but Heonsu Shin is not far behind with Ujwal Tiwari getting the best GW score of 74. Your fellow committee members are near the bottom so clearly we weren't elected for our FPL expertise. Remember that there is an AGM this Friday! And to those who attend will get free Ubereats vouchers! Please come.

17.01.2022 TRIVIA NIGHT is in 5 minutes at 7.30pm, PLEASE come in now, if you can! There are prizes for the winners and it'll be good fun. Passcode is 123456 https://unimelb.zoom.us/j/86865273932

15.01.2022 TONIGHT we'll be having Trivia Night at 7.30pm, I hope everyone can make it! It'll be a lot of fun! Although there's no teams, I think it's pretty fun if people are chatting to each other while the trivia is going on so feel free to join our Discord where you can enter voice chats to chat with people. You don't have to but it'll be cool. Discord link: https://discord.gg/AcYNWn9... Also enter here to win a chance in a giveaway as thank you for joining Trivia night! https://forms.gle/XyftngRg8UgKUSH19

15.01.2022 TRIVIA TRIVIA TRIVIA! This Friday, we'll be holding a fun little Kahoot Trivia on Zoom about all things football from EPL, Bundesliga, UCL , culture and even FIFA ratings! Think you're a football genius? Test your knowledge in the trivia. It's been a long semester but I hope everyone will come around and have fun playing some football trivia trying to win prizes but also have a good time laughing at the questions I've set up.... Please come and have fun, thank you! PS: Enter here to win a chance in a giveaway as thank you for joining Trivia night https://www.facebook.com/events/345539856779046/

15.01.2022 And it's the end of the semester and our club has went through a tough but arduous year! We had a fun time playing trivia and congratulations to Nicole who won a $50 JB Hifi gift card and Tommy who won a $25 lucky draw Amazon gift card. I hope everyone is okay and good luck with your exams! Please join us for events post-exam, we will be having more fun then so please come along! Thank you guys for sticking with us.... PS: To those who attended the AGM, please check your emails, for the free $5 giftcards.

14.01.2022 Only 3 hours before our AGM, I hope everyone can attend the AGM and keep our club going for another year. Remember that if the AGM is successful, everyone gets a free Ubereats voucher! And membership sign-ups are free so all you need is to attend and be a Unimelb student! Hope to see everyone there at 4.15pm today.

13.01.2022 We have our final two, phdsteven and SparktoKing facing it off with FIFA 21 on the line as the grand prize. The Real Madrid effect strikes again and looks like it may be a Real Madrid and Liverpool final if they keep it up.

13.01.2022 Gameweek 1 has been completed and we had a pretty strong FPL league so far! And yes, maybe naming my team after a player who scored only 2 goals last season was a bad omen. Well done to Nirdesh for taking top spot while last year's champion Justin Sternfeld is in the middle of the pack, playing catchup. Remember to join our Discord for some FPL and football chat (https://discord.gg/AcYNWn9) And it's not too late to join the FPL League to win Rebel Sports and EB Games gift cards!

11.01.2022 We will be having our AGM next Friday, 2nd of October! As a reminder, only Unimelb students can vote. I hope that every member can try and make it to the AGM and into the Zoom session. This is very important because if the AGM fails, we won't have a club next year and we'll lose a lot of the weekly football sessions that we had before the pandemic. I hope that members will come and exercise their right to vote and elect the incoming committee members so this club can continu...e growing into a small community of football loving students for years to come. And also, free Ubereats voucher for everyone if we get enough people for the AGM. I hope to see you guys there! Also feel free to message the club if you have any questions about how much you need to do as a committee member (it's not that hard) or any questions in general!

09.01.2022 So this is a bit late (gotta wait for the FIFA 21 to be released) but congratulations to Sheng Tang and Steve Yan who finished as champions and runners-up for our first ever FIFA 20 tournament (they're too shy to show their faces heh) ! It was a great tournament and I hope everyone had fun. If you guys are eager for more prizes, feel free to join our Trivia Night this Friday at 7.30 pm as winners get prizes as well! And if you want to enter the raffle as thank you for joining... Trivia Night, sign up here! https://forms.gle/BdJzUWtZCCj3E9nRA Event page is here: https://www.facebook.com/events/345539856779046/ PS: Expect the Ubereats vouchers to be in your email soon for the AGM, it's been a long week for me personally with assignments so I finally have time to sort that out. Thank you and hope you have a great week ahead!

08.01.2022 Just a quick heads up, we resent the email notice for the AGM to all the members, it's the same date and details and everything but we now added the Agenda during the AGM and our club's constitution. Sorry about the spam and thanks for the understanding.

07.01.2022 Our first day have seen us have our semi-finalists make their mark and come closer to grabbing that exclusive grand prizes. Lesson of the day, take Real Madrid if you want to win.

07.01.2022 Hello, a quick reminder to everyone to join our Discord - especially those who wants to join us to play casual futsal matches. You should come and join the Discord as it is easier to discuss which days you are free and band together to play football games even outside the usual games. Definitely join our Discord so we can all plan the games properly and everyone can look to make it! Discord Link: https://discord.gg/AcYNWn9... *********************************************************************** Another note is to those who are looking to play futsal/football with us, please fill up this form. At the moment, we still plan to play weekly futsal matches on campus but this is for a backup scenario! It is to ask you guys about your preferred options for futsal - in the case that on-campus events are not possible. Please fill them up earnestly! And as I repeat, join the Discord! https://forms.gle/w1L3m7F5F82vK5fv8

04.01.2022 Gameweek 2 has been done and dusted, anyone had Son or Mane? An unexpected turnaround with them getting the most points after blanking the last round. Remember to keep the faith and be patient, sometimes you'll get rewarded. Nirdesh continues to pull ahead with the lead but David is not far behind with an amazing 113 points this week in 2nd. Not much changes near the top but the bottom half sees a lot of movers and shakers with our ex-champion Justin Sternfeld continuing his ...slide. GW3 beckons indeed, will you put your trust in Everton trio or is it some Spurs flavour this week? Remember to join our Discord for some FPL and football chat (https://discord.gg/AcYNWn9) And it's not too late to join the FPL League to win Rebel Sports and EB Games gift cards!

04.01.2022 Hello, I hope everyone is doing well in these tough times. Just a quick message regarding mental health. Remember that it is okay to not feel okay during these troubling lockdown periods and if you ever need someone to turn to, please do not hesitate to turn to people you love. We at Soccer Appreciation Society are always free to chat about football or anything real reason, we are out there for you if you wanna have a chat about the upcoming EPL season, a quick FIFA game or c...omplaining about Unimelb. We are on Discord where most of the chat will be at. I wish you guys a great day and coming semester! (https://discord.gg/AcYNWn9)

02.01.2022 A reminder that our AGM is THIS Friday at 4.15pm! Please come and vote for your incoming committee. And more importantly to keep the club alive, so we can play football games next year.
