What to expect.

Pickup soccer in New York is a fixed day, a field and whoever turns up, split into teams on the spot. Most games are mixed ability and friendly, and some are specifically casual or women-and-non-binary nights, which the listing says.

Bring shin pads and a light and a dark shirt. Park games are usually free; booked turf splits the permit cost.
