Play Football with Better
There are a huge range of fantastic football activities available that promote teamwork, build friendships and teach new skills via our comprehensive and inclusive football programme. From junior football training through to walking football, Better has everything you need to keep active and entertained - all at an affordable price.
The benefits of football
Not only is football a great game to watch, but you'll also benefit from training and playing regularly. From kids to adults, here are some reasons why having a kickabout will help your score a health hattrick:
Improves your heart health and lowers blood pressure - as long as you keep moving throughout the game, you'll be getting your blood pumping and contributing to your overall heart health.
Build strength, speed and stamina - remember, you're using power and strength to get the ball in the back of the net, tackling an opponent or to your teammate.
Training your brain - what's your next move? How can you get the ball forward? All these tactics need to be worked out.
Reducing body fat - as football is a cardio exercise, you'll be using up calories and burning fat.
Increase muscle mass and body strength - football involves running and sprinting, which helps build muscle and power in your legs.
Train & Play
Have a kick about?
Whether you want to play a 5-a-side match or train, Better has a number of football centres that you can book. So why not grab your friends and get on the ball? Online bookings can be made up to 14 days in advance.
Better Football for Juniors
When it comes to football training for kids, we put fun at the heart of our curriculum. We provide the best possible environment to learn, develop and make new friends and deliver sessions that are simple and fun.
Better Football for Birthday Parties
Treat your child to a special junior football birthday at your local Better leisure centre. We’ll give them a party that gets the whole playground talking and handle everything from the invitations, party hats and food as well as cleaning up afterwards.
*Birthday party packages vary by centre. Contact your local centre for details.
Walking Football
If you're 55+ and want to get active, play football and meet new people, try walking football. Available at centres up and down the country, add a new lease of life by joining a training session. This is a social rather than a competitive activity and everybody's welcome to join in.
