Play football in Taipei with the Celts
As one of the most successful and oldest teams in Taiwan, the Celts are always actively seeking new football / soccer players to join our team. We have two teams, a competitive and social team that play in two different leagues, so everyone has a chance to play. In addition, we have the only regular training session every Thursday that is open to all players (please email before you come). As for League games they take place on most Sundays in Taipei, while we also participate in quarterly tournaments around the island. The team is a mix of nationalities with a Celtic twist, who all enjoy playing football at varying skill levels and the social life that goes with being part of one of the best loved teams in Taiwan.
Please if you are interested in playing some football or would like more information.
我們也歡迎我們第二喜歡的國家-台灣 的球員加入我們 (最喜愛的國家是愛爾蘭). 我們有幾位球員可以說流暢的中文. 如果你像我們一樣一直有在踢足球, 歡迎與我們聯繫.

Weekly training in Taipei
We have a permanent (at least unless the weather is terrible) training location at Bailin A pitch. We play every Thursday evening from 19:15 onwards, you are more than welcome to come and join. We also play a league and if you are up to standard then you will be more than welcome to join the team.
The training is for two teams - Celts & Rogue FC. we normally play a 7 side game then a 11 a side game.
Closest MRT: Jiantan (about 15 minute walk from the pitch)
Directions from the MRT: from Jiantan MRT go to exit 2, then do a u-turn out of the exit on your right hand side then turn left at the next road, Jiantan Road, then take a right after 30 metres on Cheng De Rd and follow this for 10 minutes on the LHS of the road and turn right at DaNan Rd, just before the busy interesection follow that to 7/11 and there is a small path that you have to go up to get over the storm barrier to the pitch.
The cost is NT$200 per session. If you are new, please before coming so we can keep track of our numbers.
