3v3 UK National Finals — A Record-Breaking Celebration of Football

3v3 UK National Finals — A Record-Breaking Celebration of Football

Hundreds of teams. Thousands of goals. Endless small-sided magic.

Last week, the 3v3 UK National Finals took over St. George’s Park, the home of England’s National Teams — and the atmosphere was electric. With multiple AirPitches and BazookaGoals set up across the training ground, players enjoyed non-stop action in the ultimate small-sided environment.

The numbers tell the story:

- 657 matches played
- 5522 goals scored
- 847 players involved
- 1500 spectators cheering
- 223 teams competing
- 18 champions crowned

But this isn’t just about one weekend. In April 2024, the FA launched its Future Fit programme, reshaping grassroots football. For the first time, 3v3 became a mandatory format for U7s, delaying the rush to 11v11 and giving players the environment they need to truly develop.

That’s why the AirPitch Inflatable Football Pitches are the perfect choice for 3v3 training. Lightweight, portable, and safe for kids — yet durable enough for club use — they’re built to match the FA’s vision for developing smarter, more skillful players.

As the new season kicks off, now’s the time to give your players the same benefits enjoyed at St. George’s Park.

Equip your club with AirPitches today and bring the magic of 3v3 to every session.
