A resident in Lincoln has created a new opportunity for football enthusiasts in the city, aiming to bring a more casual approach to the nation’s beloved sport. After moving to Lincoln last summer, the football fanatic found the traditional 11-a-side game too harsh on his knees. Instead of giving up, he turned this challenge into an opportunity and set up a casual Meetup group for those wanting a relaxed mid-week game.
This initiative’s objective is to cultivate enough interest to secure a weekly pitch, proposing a less-stressful choice as opposed to the competitiveness of standard football leagues. The organiser, who has friends in other cities that enjoy such arrangements, expressed hope that Lincoln would soon experience the same spirit of fellowship and health benefits.
Excitement is already underway, with locals expressing their eagerness online. An interested individual stated, ‘This is just the kind of thing I’m looking for, I will join the group later and spread the word among a few friends who might be interested.’
For those eager to participate, signing up to the group can be done through Meetup, where all are urged to register, lace their football boots, and get ready for an enjoyable new addition to Lincoln’s social and sporting calendar.
