When: Saturday 4-6 p.m.

Where: Moda

How to get there: The pitch is approximately 10 minutes walk from Kadikoy Iskele. The easiest way to find it is to follow the tramlines up the hill to Moda (walking opposite to the flow of traffic). At the point where you reach Erkonyalilar Kebab, leave the tramlines and turn right. A little further down the road you?ll see a mosque and playground, between them is the pitch.

What does it cost: Mainly medical expenses but 7-10 YTL depending on the number of players. The pitch costs 112 YTL for the two hours we play, so divide that by the number of players...simple innit!
