Re: Winter practice?

For the last 5 years or so, we've just played straight through the
winter here in St. Louis.  The only thing that has really been a
problem is ice.  Snow is OK, and you can play in cleats.  Put plastic
bags around your socks (bread bags work well.)  If they slide around
inside your shoes, put another layer of socks outside the plastic. 
This works even for me, and I have a problem w/Reynaud's.

If you practice in the worst conditions you can find, you'll do much
better when the tourney turns out to have bad weather.  How many teams
have you run across that can't even deal with wind?

And if you are in the midwest, Tofurkey in Columbia, MO is next
weekend (Dec. 6/7)  Speaking of cold weather tourneys  :)
