    Five-a-side is a specific format of football (soccer), aimed at more casual play with a much lower bar to skill level. Outside of five-a-side leagues (which do exist), it’s rarely played with fixed teams and often ran in a more “pick up group” fashion.

      Ooohh, I thought you were just using that as a substitute name for football.

        I can totally see how it could be read like that!
