First club game in 24 years. What's changed?

Called up to my local team this Saturday after 4 nets sessions. Otherwise, I haven't played since 2002 or thereabouts.

What's changed that I need to know about?

All the gear is comfier now - I'm sorted for that except my enormous vintage maroon helmet with broken elastic chin strap. I don't think I'll find a big enough helmet on time for my oversized noggin. Still rocking my Gray Nicolls Scimitar.

I imagine there are fewer old men wandering about naked in the changing rooms.

What else do I should I expect to have changed? Serious and trivial replies both encouraged.

NGD: I've never seen anything more sparkly

My ST Modern Plus HSS arrived. I didn't realise just how sparkly it would be.

She's a beaut. Very low action out of the box with no string buzz. Neck very comfortable despite me being a Ibanez kind of guy. No problems at all - maybe some details on the wood that I could be very picky about.

Not fully put through three paces in terms of tone yet but a quick play on the Spark 2 was promising.

Question is - do I dare to play it to lead worship at church or will it distract everyone?
