Redwhiteandblue 3,330 Posted February 28, 2013 Share Posted February 28, 2013 Anyone play seven and bye? Was similar to catchy, except the keeper got a point if tge ball went bye as well as catching it. Whoever gave the keeper his seventh point went in. Ciuld only score with vollys outsode the boxor headers iinside the box. Spent full summers playing it till 2am sometimes. Great days. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

They made for the best goals everwe called it headers and volleys. 1 point for a volley and 2 for a header. as soon as the keeper caught it you where in nets. it was first to twelve. points, a save and a miss was worth two points to the keeper.

Bud72 117 Posted February 28, 2013 Share Posted February 28, 2013 When you played in the street the cops would chase you, lost a few jumpers. The cops would take them back to the cop shop in Plantation St.You had to claim them back, nobody ever did.Maybe the cops got their whistles off the ragman when they swapped our gear.Happy days.
