Magaluf Main Picture

Five-a-side football Magaluf

The game is essentially exactly like football, the only major difference is that instead of the usual eleven, you have five players. Four outfielders and a goalie. It obviously requires a smaller pitch and lasts for a shorter duration. The game can be played both indoors and outdoors. It is basically extremely flexible and was almost designed to satisfy sports lovers with spontaneity who cannot wait for 11 players and arrange a large field.

With so much ease attached to it, the game has become very popular all over, including Magaluf. Here, annual 5-a-side football tournaments are held in June in a local football stadium. The stadium accommodates up to 5000 people and can last for as little as 3 days or a full week. Packages including the game, hotel bookings, hotel transfers etc. are usually available starting at 290 pounds.

However, games between amateurs are easy to spot randomly all year round. You basically get four other blokes and start a game wherever you find place. And whatever be the result, it gives the players and supporters a great excuse to party the night away. Even if they have the needed number of players, they’d be ever-ready to accommodate fresh legs with spirit.
