Party on the pitch
Our fun football party packages include a discounted five-a-side pitch hire price and a host of added activities like a crossbar challenge. You can host it yourself or we’ll organise everything for you.
Walk into a football comeback
Walking football entices men and women to get back in to football who may have given up due to age, injury or lack of opportunity.
And even if you’ve not played the game before, walking football – which is a non-contact sport – is for you too. It helps participants to get fit, maintain an active, healthy lifestyle and develop new friendships.
