This became a reality in 1983...
Just to see 'grass' on the soccer field makes me remember those days when it was cold outside and Callejon only said "Change, Change ...". But, I always enjoyed the cross country events ... run to Pozuelo ... grab a quick 'Mahou' and run back !!! But, the real fun was playing soccer "pre-grass" era. The falls, cuts, scrapes - they hurt especially, when we hosted and beat Torrejon's White and Red teams, and the American School of Lisbon." I still remember when Gabe Diaz faked a fall and Torrejon's teamplayer got the RED card on the spot !!!
