Summer sixes 2026

Tired of long breaks and no games over summer?
Summer Sixes has got you covered. Weekly matches, lots of touches, and proper competition — all summer long.

Played six‑a‑side, Summer Sixes is fast, competitive, and all about enjoying the game. You’ll play one match each week on Thursday evenings, with games lasting 38 minutes (two 19‑minute halves) and rolling subs, so everyone gets involved.

Teams are grouped by ability level, making sure matches are close, challenging, and exciting. With six players on the pitch and a maximum squad of eight, you’re always part of the action.

There’s no adults managing teams on match days — players run their own teams, make their own decisions, and take responsibility on the pitch. Parents are welcome to come and support from outside the fence if they wish.

Expect quick restarts, simple rules, loads of touches, and a great atmosphere. Whether you play for a club, school, or just love football, Summer Sixes is your chance to create your own team, keep playing, developing and enjoying the game all summer long.
