Groovy also has a Time Category class which gives you DSL style syntax for manipulating dates. Here is an example:

import org.codehaus.groovy.runtime.TimeCategory
now = new Date()
println now
use(TimeCategory) {
    footballPractice = now + 1.week - 4.days + 2.hours - 3.seconds
}
println footballPractice
which will produce output like this:
