"5-A-Side Football"

Just been playing now with my dad and his mates. Christ it's hard, especially against men. And when the ball hits you christ it hurts. But it's good fun though.

Keeps you fit. Does anyoene else here play 5-A-Side?

5-A-Side football sucks, the height rule is just plain stupid, 11-A-Side anyday :)

I play 5 a side. Thinking about entering a team in to the O2 & FHM tornament. I also play 11 a side on Saturdays. Such a difference in pace.

Hmm a bristol rovers fan...? Haven't seen one of those on here before....

I used to play in a 4-a-side team in a school tournament. I go out and play football with some friends sometimes and it usually ends up at 5-a-side.

Was much better on a 5-a-side pitch then i was on the 11-a-side one. Hated the over the head rule as well, i'm 6 inches taller then everyone dammit don't take away what little advantage i have :-D

That was the same as me.

I chipped the keeper tonight but was cut off for being too high.

Raging I was.

ha the head height rules suck. we don't play them, its so much more fun you can try on random skills and aerial goals are cool.

3, actually.

But not again, please
