Want to play in The Kickout Qualifiers (presented by the Cleveland Crunch) on the evenings of Aug. 5 & 6?

Register your team here: https://www.clevelandprosoccer.com/kickout

If you're not already part of a team, it can be hard to get into things at first. But let's put the magic of soccer to work. Here are some ways to meet people and assemble a team:

1. Put it out into the universe. Share Kickout info on socials, group chats, discord and say: let's play! Worst they can do is say no. The cool people won't.

2. Come play free pickup at North Coast Yard. Men play Mondays, women play Tuesdays, 6-9 p.m. We'll be back at it next week. Move with us and see who's looking for a team, too.

3. Call up your former teammates. Whether it's been three weeks, years or decades — bring 'em out! See who's in their contacts too. Set up time (or come to pickup!) to kick around. Then register your team!

4. Stay tuned for free agent comms. No guarantees here. But if we end up with loose ends and free agent opportunities, we'll post on socials and send emails to share. If you're not already signed up for updates, go to our website and sign up!

The Kickout Qualifiers will be at Dick's House of Sport in Strongsville:
- Wednesday, Aug. 5, evening: Forest City Division (men)
- Thursday, Aug. 6, evening: Astra Division (women)

Top teams play for a cash prize at The Kickout Finals at North Coast Yard, later in August.
