Hello to all you soccer players!

Do you think, like us, that soccer is among the best there is? Are you looking for a new football team or eager to dust off your old dojjas that have been waiting for you for far too long? Do you want to play in a team where camaraderie and having fun together is at least as important as the performances on the field? Then this could really be something for you and I recommend you keep reading!

The 2023 football season has just seen the light of day and our association ABC (Academic Ball Club) is looking for new players to strengthen our ranks with. The association is looking for players for both our men’s teams (Div.4 and Div.6) and our women’s team (Div.3).

We welcome all different types of players, young and old and experienced and inexperienced soccerplayers. In our group, you will find a place regardless of whether your goal is to bet high or just join in and enjoy everything that being part of a soccer team means. In our teams, the performance on the field is as important as enjoying a refreshing drink together in our beach sauna afterwards.

Come and brighten up your summer with us and create memories for life! Welcome to the gang, welcome to ABC!

Below you will find contact information for each team. You can contact us on whatsapp, facebook or turn to the team’s instagram!

This course teaches you the basics of safe top rope climbing and top rope belaying (belayer on ground). The course price includes a free 1 month trial membership. After the course, you are able to independently climb on top rope and belay another climber. You will also receive a training card from the instructor, with which you can independently practice top rope climbing and belaying on top rope in Wasa Up. After two weeks of independent training, you can take a belay test to obtain a national top rope card, which will allow you to top rope on all Finnish climbing centres.

If you’re a first time visitor, please arrive 15 minutes before the scheduled start of the course.
