Gather together a group of 9 or 10 players and join the field of 32 teams that will be starting off the New Year on the right foot. On January 3rd and 4th the Timbers Army Football Club is once again taking over the courts at Rose City Futsal for the Winter Classic. The teams that joined in this past June had a blast and we think the Winter Classic, with its cooler climate, will be an even better time.
The Cause
Open Play Under the Lights for Everyone: Rose City Futsal has generously pledged 25% of the registration fees to help 107ist cover the cost of providing field rental and lights for the weekly evening open play hours during the Spring and Fall outdoor seasons at Buckman Field. These free open play hours are open to all, TAFC player or not. 107ist member or not. It’s all part of promoting the game we love.
The Venue

Rose City Futsal (5010 NE Oregon St, Portland, OR 97213) is a premium facility centrally located on the east side of Portland right off of I-84. Two artificial turf courts and one large hard surface court serve the matches. Enjoy a pint ($1 off for 107ist members) and a meal with the family as you all watch the replay of your match on one of the many flat screens in Clive’s Pub directly above the playing floor or visit the newly opened Far Post Soccer Supply store on site. You’ll love this well established Timber’s Army partner business.
The Format
This family fun style tournament event will be held on January 3rd and 4th (Saturday and Sunday). You’ll get a minimum of 4 games in for the low price of $35/player. No player’s card needed. No commitment to a season. Open to members and non members, Mens, Womens and Coed teams will all be scheduled. Your team will play twice on Saturday (either in the morning or the afternoon) and twice on Sunday with the possibility of an additional Championship bracket match on Sunday afternoon.
There will be a BBQ, a special Tourney Shirt for sale, fundraising kegs, a 107ist Membership Table and the Winter Classic Trophy will be there waiting to have the name of the winning team from each competitive bracket added to it. There will also be a new non-competition bracket exclusively devoted to teams and individuals as an intro to futsal and will be a great fit for those that just want some good fun on the weekend.
