Get chatting at your football club social by meeting people who play in more than one position, bring spare shin pads or enjoy coaching juniors. Tick off shared interests as you make introductions.

How to run this activity

Meet people at the gathering and tick a square when a willing participant matches its description. Different squares can involve different people. Do not ask anyone to share private details or disclose beliefs.

Facilitator guidance

Give a brief example, encourage introductions and make participation voluntary, with the option to pass without sharing personal details. Check the group size and interests, and choose varied squares that suit the gathering and are accessible to everyone. Aim for a line of five rather than a full card; for smaller groups, consider a 3×3 board with a line of three.

Safety and inclusion

Use inclusive language and never pressure anyone to disclose private information. Avoid unsafe challenges and restricted areas, and do not require physical movement; offer seated ways to take part.
