Derby Day Delight as Honey Badgers Retain Trophy and Stick It to the Dragons…. Again.

In the Second Annual Clark Field Derby, Cameron Road retained the glorious (and ever-expanding) trophy by beating the Dragons 2-1. The Clark Field melting pot took center stage on Field #2.

Honey Badgers Feast on Cobra and Send Wolverines to Bed Without any Supper

In the battle of early morning nasty-as-hell carnivorous mammals, there was only going to be one winner.  Honey Badgers 3 – Wolverines 0.

Man City 1 – CRU 1

With the brutal rays of summer finally beating down on them, the Honey Badgers took the field at noon to face the mighty Manchester City. City may not have secured the services of Raheim Sterling by kickoff, but they did unleash a dynamic duo frontline that was as formidable as Cameron Road had ever seen….

CRU 1 – CC United 3

Not even the raucous support of Hagrid and the Baker Street Mean Eyed Cat Boys could rally the Honey Badgers to victory yesterday as they fell to another top of the table team. Cameron Road fielded a strong compliment of subs, but were still missing some key players as McKenna, Luke, Crosley, Ben, Ciro and…

Badgers Beat Dragons to Win the First Annual Clark Field Derby!

With a dreadfully average league campaign drawing to a close, and fresh memories of the heartbreaking, last-second Fall Cup Final defeat still on their minds, the Honey Badgers knew that the Clark Field Derby was their last chance at filling up the trophy cabinet this year. And with an impressive late second half charge, Cameron…

Second Half Stumbles Doom Honey Badgers to Defeat: CRU 1 – Austin Blues 4

Miraculously, the rains that were forecast for the weekend never materialized, and instead the drive out to Manor was accompanied by a thick blanket of eery fog. Ominous…. but for which team? The Honey Badgers welcomed the mythical Ben Lee into the midfield, and alongside Ciro, they formed the central midfield “tower of power”. They…

Johnny Football Does Not Score as Cameron Road and Chopped Liverpool Fight to a Goalless Draw.

The Honey Badgers pitched another defensive shoutout against table toppers Chopped Liverpool yesterday and earned a well-deserved point.

Honey Badgers Route Takoba 4-0 to Kick Off the Spring Season

What a difference a week makes! Fresh from an embarrassing second half collapse against the Madrigal Dragons last week, the Honey Badgers were thirsty for cobra’s blood. They were onto the sent early, as they showed up 17 strong before kickoff. Rumor has it that Jefe sent up camp in the 7:00 hour, finding just…

The Epic, Fantastic, Unbelievable Journey that was the 2014 Austin Fall Cup

For the second time in three tries, the Honey Badgers made it to the Austin Fall Cup Finals in a thrilling, captivating, monumental, epic weekend of soccer and sausages. The Cameron Road Executive Council did its homework with the pre-tournament planning as they secured the services of Travis, Nick and Berto to add a “Punter Bump”…

Chopped Liverpool Win Bragging Rights By Beating Honey Badgers 2-1

In the battle for the Crown & Anchor, Cameron Road United came up just short and fell to Chopped Liverpool on Sunday. It was a closely contested game that went down to the wire in typical derby fashion. If not for some bad luck and some heroics from the Liverpool keeper, the Honey Badgers would…

On a late Sunday afternoon in crispy October, the Onion Creek wind swiftly swept in from the south, whispering of unforgiving bounces and exuding an “anything goes” attitude. The Badgers of Cameron Road United gathered their strength at Field 6 of OCSC for the late 4 pm game.  CRU made a good showing in numbers with 15 strong, and erecting a three-tent…

Cameron Road Settles for Opening Day 2-2 Draw Against Deep Eddy

With the dreadful summer season fading into memory like that one time Ryan claims to have scored five goals in a game, the Honey Badgers embarked on their second season in Over 30B with high hopes.  Unlike last year, there was no Chris Peterson party to celebrate his freshly painted deck to knock out half the…

Mercifully, the Summer Season From Hell Ends with a 3-2 Loss Against the Baker Street Boys

Thank God it’s over. While some of the other Over 30 B teams were lounging around in D5, Cameron Road United was given the harsh task of competing in the “under 18 year old & stock your team with premier player league” – D3. It was rough going, but today’s game against an Over 30…

Morelia 4 – CRU 2

The summer slide continued yesterday as Cameron Road United fell to Morelia 4-2.

CRU 3 – Teenagers 5

The Summer Season. A glorious mixed bag of games versus just about anybody of any age. This week’s edition featured a matchup against Galaxia FC, who took pieces from their D1 team and mixed them with about 10 talented kids in the 17 year old range. It was a little strange. They Honey Badgers fielded…

Memorial Day Massacre

If you happened to catch the Champions League final, it was a good analogy for The Honey Badgers last game of the 2013/2014 season. Like Atletico Madrid, Cameron Road stood toe to toe with Austin Athletic Club until they were overcome by injuries, exhaustion, and a lack of fresh bodies to call upon. The final…

Honey Badgers Stay Alive in Title Race with 4-2 Win Over Dragons

  Cameron Road United stayed alive in the race for the title with a resounding 4-2 win over the pesky Dragons yesterday.

CRU 4 – Takoba 1

It was back to business as usual on Sunday as Cameron Road United beat Takoba by 3 goals and got right back into the logjam of teams vying for the title. While there were about 20 subs last week, this time around there were plenty of Honey Badgers out, either injured, out of town, or…
