15 - 20 thousand seems a bit steep for this field. I bet if I constructed something on my own with help from some skilled hands we could do it under 2 grand. However, if this field is as easy to put together as they say, and if its durable enough to last long enough, it could be a good investment. Also curious if it includes the trailer in the price. .

The wheels are turning. Street Stadia, you have officially caught my attention. Looking into unit cost.

Another Indoor Center Opens in Beaverton

Introducing Beaverton Indoor Soccer. If the area wasn't already over-saturated with indoor soccer facilities, now it is. This isn't necessarily a bad thing. The prices to field a team have continued to rise and leagues fill up quick if their not already full. Hopefully the addition of a new facility in Beaverton will drive down prices and force each center to improve it's offerings.

A quick glance at the website doesn't reveal much detail on the field, but I did discover some interesting information.

1. Team Fees will be $545. This is cheaper than Portland Indoor, SoccerPlex, Tualatin Indoor, and Indoor Goals. They are basically undercutting the entire indoor soccer market. League fees should never have passed $600 in the first place, so it's refreshing to see a new competitor charging a more affordable and appropriate price.
2. Player Cards will cost $10. This is also cheaper than most of the other facilities. The one exception being Portland Indoor, which doesn't even require cards.
3. Men's, Women's, and COED leagues will be offered.
4. Drop In soccer is offered Monday - Friday from 12 PM to 2 PM. Cost is $5.

There are no pictures available yet of the field or the facility, so I will need to make a stop soon to find out more information. I have been in the process of organizing a soccer team from the Nike Employee Store, and this facility might be the perfect spot to start at. I'll have a Pitch Black Undercover up in the near future! Stay Tuned!

Golazo Review Round-Up

I posted my review of Golazo about a week ago, but I wanted to provide some other reviews for reference. The general consensus from these sites is that the drink gets the job done and it has a great taste. Here is where you can order yourself a six-pack with free shipping.

Golazo Energy Review + Freestyle

Golazo, Born to Score. This week I took the opportunity to crack into my 6-pack of the soccer branded energy drink. I gave 3 cans to friends, but the others I used on three separate occasions (pictured below). First, I want to say I love the design of the can. The green, black and white color combination makes for a unique presentation that should stand out on store shelves.

After taking my first sip I was surprised by the flavor. It's unlike any drink I've tried in the energy drink category. The mango flavor jumped out to me right off the bat, and eventually I was able to notice the lime. Golazo has less carbonation than other drinks and lacks the amount of sugar as well. These are both positives in my book, because the drink's marketed as providing both energy and hydration.

In terms of results, I had a positive experience. I started drinking my can about 25 minutes before an indoor game, making sure to drink slowly. My performance in the game was great. I was running the length of the field and I could feel an extra bit of jump in my step. We had multiple subs, and I wasn't about to hog minutes, so I didn't get to test how my stamina would hold over the full 44 minutes. However, I left the game feeling fresh and without the common stomach pain I get when I drink a Red Bull or AMP. The second can I drank before a long shift at work. Retail can be a boring and exhausting job, and having the Golazo certainly helped. I did crash towards the end of my shift, but that is expected. It's retail... it puts you to sleep.

Overall, I'm really impressed with Golazo. They have a solid product and they certainly know how to create a buzz. Hopefully I can get my hands on some more soon!

Trial #2: Pounded a can before working a shift at my retail job

Trial #3: Drank before playing some soccer tennis and practicing some freestyle. Here is my roommate the Footy Guru putting on a display in the background.

Golazo Energy Sampling Party: Coming Soon

I don't want to brag, but back in the day I used to be an energy drink fiend. While I was at college my buddy lived next door to a 7-11, and whenever we got bored we naturally wanted sweets and drinks. It's human nature. So we would walk on over to the store and gaze at the splendors that resided within the coolers. Energy drinks always seemed to be located directly between the soda and beer. As if to say that if you weren't quite ready to party (beer), but you didn't want to look like a kid (soda), why not go crazy with some liquid energy.

Nowadays I limit myself, but that might all change with the introduction of Golazo Energy. The first and only energy drink that celebrates the sport of soccer. The drink is currently only available in the Seattle area, unless you order from their website. They have plans to expand to Portland, but I couldn't wait to get my hands on some cans!

I just purchased a 6-pack online and will have a sampling party as soon as they arrive. I'm not sure who will be the privileged few to taste the beverage, but if you follow my blog you might get some bonus points. I'll be sure to get my opinion of the drink up on the blog as soon as possible. I also plan to test its performance as a pre-game drink before one of our indoor soccer games. Let me know if you want to join!

Inspiration: Golazo Energy

So I'm visiting some of my favorite blogs when I came across this video. My jaw literally dropped. Golazo is an energy drink company that is focused on the sport of soccer. They are located in Seattle, but have plans of expanding to Portland in the future. I've known about the beverage through a friend, but I had no idea they were throwing parties of this magnitude. In this video they are showcasing a recent 3v3 soccer event that was held in order to promote the beverage. I couldn't help but think about Pitch Black as I watched this clip. It was great to see some of my ideas incorporated into the event. The graffiti murals on the walls, painted team crests, and the hard court surface are all features that I have discussed here on this blog. To see an event of the same style really gets me excited for the possibility of creating a permanent destination for this brand of soccer.

MERRY CHRISTMAS EVERYONE

I hope you all have a wonderful time with your family and friends the next few days. I will have some great content for you after the holiday. While I'm over at my parents I will begin the design work on the Pitch Black t-shirts, so stay tuned for that. I also hope to have concept art of the court surface soon. I've got a design in my head and will leave it to my artist to get it drawn out. It will be a surface unlike anything you have seen before.

In other news I will be playing in a indoor soccer tournament the day after Christmas at SoccerPlex in Beaverton. I will try to take some video and pictures for you all to enjoy. Once again have a Happy Christmas and I will see you all very soon!

1 v 1 Challenge: Round Two

I managed to turn the tables in round two. I threw an assortment of tricks at my opponent and he was left dazed. Be sure to check out the FoggMachine move (10 second mark), the nutmeg aka "through the wickets" (21 seconds), and the game winning shot from an impossible angle (26 seconds). This will go down in history as one of my greatest achievements in the game of soccer. I'd like to give thanks to my CTR 360s for giving me the total control I needed to make this possible!

1 v 1 Challenge: Round One

We went over to the soccer field nearby the house today for some 1 v 1 action. My roommate jumped out to the early lead with his quick cuts and step-overs. The aim of the game is to beat your man and hit a shoot into the side netting for a point. Check out the dynamic camera angle as I get left in the dust.

Foggy Freestyle Volume IV

Swung by Tursi's Soccer in Lake Oswego yesterday and picked up a Futsal ball made by Calle. Obviously the first thing we did was film a couple freestyle sessions. Footy Guru nearly gets run down by some passing cars while I put on a demo for the shoppers at Albertsons.

Introducing the LO Soccer House

Today I started moving some of my possessions back to Lake Oswego. I'll be living with three of the coolest people I know (holding tryouts for a fourth in the coming months) and the house is all about the sport of soccer. We all play, we all support different clubs, and some of us even work around the sport. The backyard is sure to have some intense small sided footy games go down. We may need to invest in some small goals to set-up on each side of the lawn. Freestyle sessions are sure to go down in the courtyard as well. Check the video out for a look at the space we have available for activities.

Courtyard features an outdoor fireplace and awning to cover a pong table.

Trophy room will feature all our youth medals from the olden days. Indoor tourney trophies are sure to start piling up once we can all practice daily in the backyard.

I'll leave you with a quote from my mom when she told me we could move into the house. Every time I tell my future roommates they start cracking up, but what she says is true. We should all be moved in by early next week. Looking forward to it.

"You are going to have a good life there Mikey"

Footy Guru Does It Again!

After the record hits Pitch Black Underground received following the post of the original Footy Guru freestyle session I knew we needed to make a sequel. Just for my faithful followers I have two brand new exclusive clips of the Guru himself.

Watch as he steals the FoggMachine move and makes it look silky smooth at the 20 second mark of the first video. Must be those Concaves. Game Evolved.
