About the operator
Don’t take it from us – here’s what people have to say about this operator:
- Ko_Cheen0 contributionsA -by default- unforgettable experience!Despite the fact that I was reluctant in the first place, playing 5 A Side football with locals in Athens/Greece, constituted at all points an incomparable and stimulating experience! So, if you are going to visit Athens sooner or later, I definitely recommend you to do this beneficial activity. First and foremost, you will enjoy an above-average level of football with the locals. You don’t have to worry about your skills, since this wonderful group of people are going to adapt to your style! Regardless of the football experience, you will be able to spend a fruitful time with your teammates, while you will have the chance to drink a cup of coffee, drink a beer and share your thoughts after the end of the game. Let alone the delicious greek food choices... I would like to thank all the guys for being so friendly and hospitable. However a special thanks goes to George, a guy with excellent organizing expertise and a well mannered person! Keep up the good work!Written October 28, 2020

I had a great time! George pick me up at the metro station and help me by taking me to some outlets where I bought some great football shoes for only 23 euros. Then we arrived to an awesome football field where I’ve met some amazing people. We played for almost 90 minutes a great game. And then he took me back to the metro station. He also helped me with some indications of places to eat and travel. The experience was great so I’m planning to repeat next week!

Dear Theodora,
Thank you very much for your feedback! We are really glad that you had an amazing experience with us even if you're not a football fan :)!! It gives us great pleasure when someone who is generally not involved with the philosophy of football, follows a friend, decides to participate in a game and after all feels all these emotions!
Thank you once again for being part of our team and we hope that from now on you will start appreciating football more! ;)
Best Regards,

My family will be visiting Athens in April and my 12 year old is an avid player and lover of football. I know that he would love learning about football in Greece. Is there any chance he could join? Or are there any similar opportunities for younger players? Thank you.
