I did get a gig at the World Masters Games as a volunteer. Unfortunately it's at the rugby rather than at the football! Oh well.

Hope those playing in the football really enjoy it. Sounds like it should be a hoot.

There's an over-40s team called the Olda Roos. Ex-Australian internationals, perhaps?

I stopped playing about 11 years ago ,while in my late 30's ,when my body kept saying every Monday morning "what the f**k are you doing to me you silly old c**t"!!

When I hobbled in on a Sunday afternoon after playing and couldn't walk properly until about Wed the Mrs used to look at me, shake her head and say "you're aff yer heed you silly old bugger".

So here we are 11 odd years later and I feel fitter than I did when I was playing.....wtf??

How you manage to keep playing into your 50's MF I've got no idea.

World Cup for silly old buggers lol!!!

Good luck though
