NYC #TechWeek Soccer & Brunch
Tim Frazier from Sequoia Consulting Group and Kickoff FC are co-hosting a soccer friendly during NYC Tech Week.
This game is open to ALL skill levels of soccer, but limited only to those operating as a Founder, VC, Operator, or Partner in the Tech NYC Ecosystem.
The goal is to connect great people by having fun and building a more memorable bond together. If we can all help each other advance a professional goal (and score a goal on the pitch) - even better!
The Networking Rule: We're here to play and have fun, but also to do business. We'll make sure to have everyone introduce themselves in our teams, but your one rule (besides having fun) is to introduce yourself to someone else and learn what they do - You never know who you can meet!
Game Format: Based on the demand, we will have enough for multiple games with 7 a side.
What to Bring: Please bring turf shoes or even sneakers. Also depending on the weather, it is fine to wear shorts - or it is fine to wear sweat pants. Feel free to bring your own shin guards - but we seriously hope those aren't necessary.
How long will we play for? The soccer is expected to last 1.5 - 2 hours - with a sponsored brunch afterwards in beautiful Williamsburg.
What? A Brunch? Yes, for anyone that wants after the game, we'll be having brunch at a cafe in Williamsburg.
What's the main rule? This is a game to have fun and to network. Please show up to be awesome and fun to play with. No jerks or aggressive soccer playing allowed - your business and professional network counts on it.
