A bit of Brujos History
The San Mateo Brujos Club was founded in 1977 by a group of "futbol" players looking for a club whose objectives were to play for fun, but still be competitive and make new friends. The objectives of the Club are team fellowship and International Goodwill. The English translation for Brujos is Witch Doctors or Warlocks.
Most of our members have played professional soccer in their own countries. The Brujos Masters have represented San Mateo in several International Tournaments, as well as promoting The City of San Mateo by hosting teams from Mexico, England, Canada, Costa Rica, Argentina, Chile and the Italian Parliament.
The Brujos began in 1978 making trip to Canada and Mexico to participate in International Tournaments. Among the Counties visited sine 1978, in The Americas: Canada, Mexico, Costa Rica, Cuba, Peru, Argentina, Brazil and Chile. In Europe: England, France, Germany, Holland, Hungary, Czech Republic, Austria, Italy, Switzerland and Greece.
At this stage in our history, most of our Club members have been involved in the community for many years teaching hundreds of youngsters and young adults the skills and sporting culture of our game.
We believe it is true to claim that Brujos Masters have acted and continue to act as ambassadors and leaders in the local area in the interest of soccer development.

Rules and Regulations FOR SUNDAYS GAMES
Members and Non-Members need to sign separate “Sign Up Sheets”.
More than 24 members are showing up on Sunday Morning Games, therefore we use the Membership List as to who plays - based on the first 24 members who sign in first. The 2 teams consist of 12 players per team!!!
Substitutions: Members are not required to substitute, this is voluntary.
If we have substitutions based on a large number of players, we will only substitute member players, otherwise a member may substitute with a nonmember if they wish to give up their shirt and no members are on the sideline. All members should make an effort to try and let all members get their fair share of soccer on Sunday and share the time on the field. We will try to be as fair as possible on Sunday, so far we have not had any major problems.
NONMEMBERS - There is no commitment in them playing or substituting unless we do not have enough members. Do to the cost of the fields being increased by the School District, we request a donation from non-member players of $10.00 to play.
The San Mateo Brujos Masters Soccer Club would like to emphasize the rule and regulations for our games on Sunday.
The purpose of this, is make sure we are having a good time, no one is getting injured, we are competitive but on a recreational basis and that we are improving and enjoying our Sunday Practices:
A member or nonmember not abiding by the Rules and Regulations will be subject to a warning, which could result in time off the field, not being allowed to play for 1 or more weeks, or requested not to return to Sundays Practices - based on severity of the offense and continuous negative behavior on the field.
Continuous violations of the established Brujos Rules by Members or Nonmembers will and could result in a suspension from the Club - such behavior will not be tolerated. Suspension time from the club will be determined by the Board of Directors.
