How to Organise Weekly Football for Your Company

Every office football game starts the same way. Someone books a pitch, someone opens a group chat, and for the first few weeks it works. Then people start dropping out, nobody's sure who paid, and by month three the game's dead.

The problem was never the football. It's the admin behind it.

WHAT ACTUALLY KEEPS A COMPANY GAME ALIVE

Payments. Don't run it through someone's personal account. A dedicated weekly slot means FC Urban handles collection, .no chasing anyone for cash.

Players. A game with 8 fixed people falls apart the day 3 of them are busy. FC Urban tops up your game automatically from its wider community, so a quiet week never means a cancelled game.

Cancellations. Build in a plan for "what happens when three people drop out on a Tuesday" before it happens, not after the game's already been cancelled twice.

HOW FC URBAN HANDLES THIS

This is exactly what FC Urban for Companies is built for: a dedicated weekly pitch near your office, automatic top-up from the FC Urban community, and payment handled for you, no spreadsheets, no chasing.

FAQ

How many people do I need to start a company football game?

Ten is a comfortable starting point for five-a-side with rotation, but you don't need a fixed group — FC Urban tops up your game from its community if you're short.

‍

Who pays for the pitch?

Either the company books a fixed weekly slot and covers it, or the company buys flexible coupons for employees to use.

‍

What if half the team can't make it one week?

FC Urban automatically fills empty spots from its player community, so the game still runs at full size.
