[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]And I should add there are definitely a handful of guys even older.

But there  are very few women over around 30 -- the injuries pile up and a LOT of blown knees, ACLs etc[/quote]

Who are you?? You must not live in the DC area. Everyone here who blew out their knee has had it fixed and keeps playing. Thecwomen’s 24+ league in MoCo is filled with mostly 30-50 year old women and there are 12,teams. The Columbia women’s 18+ league has an even distribution of 18-55+ year old women on the teams and there are some 30 teams. 
MoCo then has a 40+ league with 7 teams as well. Then there’s Frederick, WAWSL in DC and a huge Virginia women’s league with women’s open, masters, grand masters and 50+ (do we call that grandma league? Idk).

Where do you live? [/quote]

Love this response!  47 and still play 4 times a week after 3 different knee surgeries spanning 30 years!  Arlington Parks and Recs runs 3 different levels of 'pick up' soccer - at Long Bridge field for the beginners (some true beginners but mostly folks who just don't want any contact any more) - so pretty convenient to DC.  It fill sup quickly as lots of regulars.  Co-ed at the beginner level, short fields with smaller sided games and lots of touch.  Plenty of folks in 30's 40's and 50's!  Lots of fun.  Indoor - in addition to Rockville Sportsplex, Dulles and Fairfax.  Fairfax has active 030 Men and Women's leagues.  AWSL in Arlington and Fairfax have strong women's leagues and contacts on web site for how to join.

Good Lucks![/quote]

Wow! Thank you! I was so dejected after the first few responses that I didn't check back until now. This is all really helpful. I never played much growing up, only in middle school but I've always loved soccer and would like to play fun pick up games or develop some greater skills as an adult. Yes I'm 40 but who cares??[/quote]
