FootballREPLAY has been created to make it easier and a lot more fun for all, by being able to offer the same place, same time every week along with smaller pitches.FootballREPLAY was launched on 13th June at 45 different centres across the United Kingdom. More than 10,000 players have been forecasted each week.

  4. Hi Joanna,

    Did a bit of Googling and found this

    I don’t know if you’re in Worcestershire?! But this suggests that there might be something in your area. Definitely worth checking with your county football officer.
