Veteran Football Clubs - How to Translate in Finnish?

Post by socialsoccer » Sun Feb 17, 2013 11:07 pm

Hello.

Hope someone can help me. I am organizing a veterans (over 35s) football tournament in Dublin, in Ireland. I want to contact Finnish clubs to see if they are interested. But I am having trouble finding the clubs. When I google translate Veteran Football, I get "veteraani jalkapallo"- but it seems to be ineffective for finding a club.

In Sweden and Germany - veterans is often translated as Old Boys....perhaps the same in Finnish?

If you are interested the tournament is on May 25th in Ireland - http://www.socialsoccer.ie

Regards,

Oliver
