The holidays are over and we’re all heading back to work, but it doesn’t have to be all work and no play after the festive season comes to an end. We don’t know about you, but we’ve got a whole holiday feast to work off and what better way to do it than to get back onto the 5 a side Football pitch?
If the start of the new year has inspired you to get fit and back into sport, we’ve got a whole host of 5 a side pitches to choose from. You can even make a block booking to ensure your pitch is available at the same time every week. Here are five of the best 5 a side football pitches in London:
Finsbury Leisure Centre
Finsbury Leisure Centre is a Central London venue with a great 3G astroturf pitch perfect for an after work 5 a side game. Slots at this popular facility get filled up quickly, so if you want to see what all the fuss is about, get in there quick! You can check availability and book instantly using our online venue calendar.
Selhurst Sports Arena
The 3G pitch at this South London venue can be booked for 5 or 11 a side football. A short walk from Selhurst rail station, the pitch is excellent value for money and would make for an ideal home ground for your weekly games. If you’d rather play on a more casual basis, you can of course also book on a one-off basis.
Horizons Health Club
In Lambeth, just south of Central London, Horizons Health Club’s 3G pitch caters for 5, 6, or 7 a side football. A 5 minute walk from Stockwell underground station, the facility is easily accessible and is brilliantly floodlit if you’re looking for an evening game.
Trailfinders Sports Club
The 3G pitch at Trailfinders Sports Club is accompanied by floodlights, changing rooms, and free parking, so you can get to and from your game in comfort, without the need to change before your arrival. Castle Bar Park rail station in West London is only a 5 minute walk from the facility if you’d rather use public transport. Book now for 5 a side football.
Drapers Field
You can book the Drapers Field pitch for any form of football between 5 and 11 a side. The 3G astroturf pitch is a 5 minute walk from Leyton underground station in Stratford, so if you’re based in East London, this venue is well worth checking out. You can even check availability and book the pitch online using the calendar on the venue page.
So why not start 2017 as you mean to go on by getting back to work and back to play this January? You can find your local pitch on the MyLocalPitch football page.
