What to expect from pickup soccer
Questions people ask about pickup soccer in Elgin
Where can I play pickup soccer in Elgin?+
At the public parks and facilities listed on this page. The first host to post a game picks one, and the game then shows here with its address.
Do I need a team to play?+
No. You reserve one spot and the host puts the teams together at the field. Most players come alone.
What level are the games, and can beginners or players over 30 join?+
Mixed. These are adult pickup games and most welcome any level. When a host wants experienced players only, the game says so on its page.
How much does it cost, and are there free games?+
Every game shows its price on the card, and Free shows where the price would be. Paid games cover the field, and you pay when you reserve or at the field, depending on the host.
What days and times are the games, and is there anything tonight?+
Mostly evenings and weekends. Nobody has posted a game here yet; sign up above and you will hear the moment the first one is posted.
What if I can't make it, or the game is cancelled?+
Cancel from the game page and a paid spot is credited back to your JoGo Wallet for your next game. If the host cancels, the same credit comes back to you.
What should I bring?+
Boots or turf shoes, water, and a light and a dark shirt so teams are easy to sort.
Is there a referee?+
No. It is pickup: the host runs the game and balances the teams, and players call their own fouls.
