Grassroots football is a passion-filled game that captivates thousands of amateur players around the world.
While it may not generate the same level of fanfare as professional league play, it serves an even greater purpose – providing an opportunity for people with a common love of the sport to come together and bond through competition.
Whether it’s just for fun or with the intent to dominate their local scene, there are countless stories of success found in grassroots football.
The Grassroots philosophy is Anti-Football, Riot style. There are no coaches, balls or goals at grassroots football.
It is a zero-tolerance, non-authoritarian, organized anarchy game played with passion and abandon. Without the pressure and distractions that come with organized football, grassroots are all about fun and enjoying yourself.
Some NGOs have a focus on promoting grassroots amateur football as a way to promote greater participation in the game and build communities.
The belief is that grass root football is the future of football, and so many opportunities are being created for players to become more involved in the game both on and off the pitch.
