About this Event
SE 5-a-side: Social Football for the Social Economy | Festival of Social Enterprise 2026
Description:
Fancy a kickabout with some of Sheffield's social enterprise community?
As part of the Festival of Social Enterprise 2026, we're hosting a relaxed, informal 5-a-side football session — no experience required, just bring yourself, a positive attitude, and ideally some trainers.
Whether you're a seasoned player or haven't kicked a ball since school, this is a great chance to connect with fellow social entrepreneurs in a completely different setting. All abilities welcome.
What to expect:
- Casual 5-a-side on an indoor court at Goodwin Sports Centre
- Friendly, mixed-ability teams picked on the day
- No pressure, no leagues — just good sport and good company
- A chance to meet others working across the social economy in Sheffield and beyond
Who's it for? Anyone working in, with, or around social enterprise — whether you're a founder, freelancer, funder, or just curious about the sector.
What to bring: Suitable footwear (no studs, trainers fine), comfortable sportswear. Teams will be arranged on the day.
Free to attend — just register your place so we know numbers.
