how to get involved
7 and 9 aside football - Friendly atmosphere - Community spirit - Developing skills - Meeting new people - Getting fit - Learning a new skill - Social events
We’re pretty sure we have the fairest fees in the small-sided league space and we’re really proud of our process. All fees are paid by the captain of your team in two rounds and we base the price on the cost of the pitch hire.
The fees are often around £25-45 per person per season depending on length of season and the number of participants in your team.
You can join as an individual or as a full team. Spaces are limited but we’ll aim to get in contact with you as soon as possible. Check out HERE to sign up to our next league!
If you’re joining as an individual you’ll simply pay the fee divided by the number of participants in the team (minimum 13 participants)
Hey, my name is Helen and I started this league which is run by the incredible Claire and Arbon. I’m a big women’s football advocate and I’m an amateur football player (I play in the Hough End League!).
I founded Manchester Laces and I’m really keen to support more women and non-binary people to get into football. I spent time running the football department at GO Mammoth in London where I ran thousands of small-sided leagues and tournaments. I’ve got experience working with venues, referees and sorting equipment to make every league special.
