Lace up the indoor soccer boots this season
EMMARENTIA – Another fun way to keep fit, active and socialising with your friends and the community.
The time to prove to your mates that you are the next Neymar Jr or Megan Rapinoe has finally come.
Urban Sports Marks Park kicked off their 5-a-side football leagues on January 17 and the 2022 season and tournaments are to be the best ones yet. Urban Sports’ Pedro Tocha invited the community to join in as their club is about bringing people together to share the good times as a community, improving fitness and general health while being the local home of 5-a-side football.
Tocha said, “We don’t just invite the community into our clubs, we support them in various different projects too. We work directly with the community to plan annual events such as the Ramadaan Cup, Islamic Charity Event and the Maradona Cup.”
Hosted at Marks Park Sports Club in Emmarentia, the club offers various 5-a-side activities but their most exciting is the 5-a-side nightly leagues. This is a social and competitive league that can be a great way of getting an intense ‘after work’ workout with a bunch of friends or colleagues. Teams are made up of eight to 10 people who choose a weeknight to play their matches.
Teams can choose if they are playing in the competitive or social league but will need to be registered beforehand. League games kick off each weeknight between 18:30 and 21:30, and time slots are equally allocated between all teams. Every player is able to register their player ID for their goals to be tracked and enter into the Top Scorer competition.
“Our unique Action Replay Service allows all players to download their goals from our website directly after their game.”
Teams that join late can easily be slotted into already existing leagues.
