Warehouse retro-fit

On Sundays I've been playing 5 on 5 coed soccer with a new team called The Rebels part of the Ottawa Footy Sevens League. We play on a gym floor which took me a while to get used to compared to where I play on Thursdays which is turf. I'm slowly getting used to the floor and the smaller ball. I had played in the foundry (centre multisport) before, but on their turf fields. The old warehouse has three pitches, two with turf and one with a gym floor. The gym floor is also used for basketball, badminton, volleyball and I've also seen roller-derby being practiced on the space. Definitely a great re-use of an old space. I really like the floor the ceiling windows. It's great during the day, as the natural light fills-in the space. On a bonus, tonight I scored my first goal with the team which felt great!

  4. Cool retro-fit! I used to play indoor soccer, so much fun to make the winter months fly by. I may have to try it again sometime.
