WHAT MAKES US STAND OUT FROM THE REST?

We have assigned area managers available 24/7 to answer all your questions or queries. Unlike other providers, our teams actually turn up every week! We do not tolerate disruptive teams, they are simply removed from our football leagues. 

COVID -19 

Leisure Leagues Colchester & Tiptree have taken the appropriate steps to ensure that all our Colchester 6 a side football leagues are Covid-19 safe, with a string of new measures including asking teams to pay for their games online in advance (no handling of cash), and not allowing teams within a metre of the Referee. 

COLCHESTER 6 A SIDE FOOTBALL TEAM NAMES


When you sign your team up to one of our leagues you are free to choose any team name, however it must not be offensive in nature, or include foul language (swear words) of any kind. If your team name breaches this policy you will be advised to change the name prior to officially joining the league.  If you are struggling to come up with a team name, a good place to visit is The Ultimate Guide to 5-a-side Team Names

COLCHESTER 6 A SIDE FOOTBALL KITS


On initial sign up to one of our leagues your team will be offered a 6 a side football kit to purchase at a reduced rate. Our quality 6 a side kits are extremely durable and will withstand harsh weather conditions as well as abuse from players, such as pulling or ripping, and general wear and tear. These are kits that will never let you down, not in appearance or performance. We provide many kit options and sizes with a variety of colour schemes and styles available - Your area Manager will discuss this with you in detail in your welcome telephone call.

OUR REFEREES


Each game is controlled by our assigned referee/s who will have full authority to enforce the Laws of the Game in connection with the game to which he has been appointed, from the moment he enters the locality where the playing area is situated until he leaves. We fully understand that our referees may get decisions wrong at times, but they will fully explain their actions to you either during or post your fixture.

CLOTHING


All teams must wear matching colours. This could be your own kit or same coloured shirts, our referee will supply you with bibs if necessary. As there are a number of different pitch types ranging from water based astro to 5G astro. This makes every venue unique and it differs as to what is allowed or disallowed. You can view the acceptable footwear at your venue by viewing the relevant league page. Shin Guards are not compulsory, but they are advisable, all players play at their own risk.
