Dont know if there are any {-)  Three in a team and that`s about it. The door-stop springs and a number on a "regulation" Springer and you qualify.  A smaller than normal football helps.  Might be fun with an oval ball for Internationals with colonial teams {-) :P

Those of us in the antipodes look forward to a international Oval ball footy match, as it appears we are on the decline with our other sports its time for world domination in Springer football. :}

Nick,
who will be bringing fibreglass, not styrene Springers.


The German hull could be epoxy fibreglass, that would give it the translucency where no gel coat has been used?

  ...Hi Guys...

Wee Johnny has already played a few Springer Football matches with his tug...

He played against Engerland at Greenock at the First Scottish Tug-In & Scored the winning goal...

...As for Bending The Rules...

We will need to be watching certain Black Coloured Springers as they might have a tendancy " To Dive In The Penalty Box" ...


...Best Regards...Norry & Wee Johnny...
