Welcome to the 6-a-side Summer League at Northern United: Bigger, Better, and More Exciting Than Ever!

We are thrilled to announce that Northern United is once again hosting its highly anticipated 6-a-side Summer League, now in its third year!

This year, we are taking the Summer League to new heights by introducing several exciting changes to cater to all ages and interests. To ensure a fair and engaging experience, we will be splitting the junior teams into age groups and hosting matches over two unforgettable nights of football. Tuesdays will feature the exciting clashes of Men's, Women's, and Junior teams, while Thursdays will showcase the fierce competition among Mixed and Junior teams.

In addition to these exciting changes, we've also found a fantastic new location for the tournament—Ashurst Park! With its well-lit grounds, we can now push game start times later, allowing for an even more enjoyable evening of football for everyone.

Northern United's 6-a-side Summer League is all about fostering camaraderie, promoting sportsmanship, and celebrating the beautiful game of football. With our increased capacity, age-specific divisions, and enhanced facilities at Ashurst Park, we are confident that this year's edition will be the best one yet.

So, dust off your boots, gather your teammates, and get ready for an unforgettable footballing summer at Northern United!
