⚽ FIXTURE NEWS ⚽

We love a midweek kickabout… but we love watching the Three Lions even more 🦁🦁🦁

So we’re benching ourselves on these two nights to make way for the World Cup:

📅 Wed 17 June — England v Croatia
📅 Tue 23 June — England v Ghana

No leagues, no fixtures, no excuses not to be glued to the telly with a cold one

Normal service resumes after the final whistle. Now get the snacks in. It’s coming home (again) 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿

What a week 🔥🔥🔥🥵. Lovely work from all the gentlemen who made it in this week 🫡

Hearty congratulations to one and all

The second most important squad announcement of the day, and once again some big names miss out. It’s never easy making those calls on a Friday from 5aside.org HQ, but team of the week is not for everyone. Mentality monsters only need apply.

#🐐

A reminder that the weekend stretches into Monday, with no fixtures at any venues on Bank Holiday Monday. Back in action on Tuesday 👌🏼

The cream of the crop this week 😤🥶⭐️

Lots of debutants this week as we celebrate another team of the week.

Great to see Y.A.K Athens feature after a tough season at Bermondsey in which they have kept plugging away and played with a smile on their faces 👏🏼

Congratulations to all who made the cut this week

We are back it next week with over 200 teams in action across London
