Every Wednesday, Boston, Lincolnshire, transforms into a magnet for football enthusiasts, courtesy of a group of friends who organise friendly bouts on a synthetic pitch. These matches, with team sizes ranging from 4, 6, to 8-a-side, contingent on the number of participants, warmly welcomes players aged 16 and over, irrespective of their skill level.
The unique feature of these games is the absence of a referee which fosters a relaxed atmosphere. While a competitive spirit is nurtured, aggressive tackles and reckless play are consciously avoided to keep the focus on the enjoyment factor of the game. The objective is straightforward: to savour the charm of the beautiful game in a convivial and inclusive setting.
So, if the idea of a mid-week friendly football match sparks your interest, do make it a point to visit Boston this coming Wednesday and participate in the merriment!
