Football in Reading, joining a team
Football in Reading: Looking to Join a Team
I recently relocated to Reading and I’m on the lookout for any casual weekly football games that welcome new players. I’m not necessarily aiming for league play, but I’d be open to it if there’s availability. Just to give you an idea, I’m in my mid-20s. Any suggestions would be appreciated!
Welcome to Reading! There are definitely some casual football games you can join. Here are a few options you might consider:
Local Parks: Many parks often have informal games happening on weekends. It’s worth checking out places like Prospect Park or Palmer Park.
Social Media Groups: Look for Facebook groups or community page listings for “Football in Reading” or similar terms. These often have posts about pick-up games or people looking to form teams.
Meetup.com: This is a great platform where you can find local groups that organize casual football matches. Just search for football or soccer groups in Reading.
Sports Facilities: Check out local sports centers or gyms that might host casual leagues or drop-in sessions. Some places may even have weekly games open to all.
Local Pubs or Social Clubs: Some pubs host casual games or have teams looking for players, especially those that are sports-oriented.
It’s a great way to meet new people and enjoy the sport! Good luck, and enjoy playing!
