At Powerplay, they take care of everything so that you can focus on playing the game. Their leagues run in mini-seasons that last around 8–13 weeks, allowing you to play every opponent twice in one season. Games typically run for around 40 minutes, ensuring an exciting and fast-paced experience.

They offer multiple divisions in their leagues and will find the right one for you based on your skill and experience level. Each league is assigned an event organiser who will be your point of contact throughout the season, helping you get started and ensuring a smooth progression.

Powerplay provides all the necessary match officials and equipment. There is no need for you to worry about anything except turning up and enjoying the game. Top venues usually cost between 6-10 per player, while standard venues are normally between 4-7 per player. They have a transparent fee structure with no joining fees, affiliation fees, membership fees, or signup deposits.

Both the netball and football leagues at Powerplay allow for unlimited substitutions. Netball leagues are 7-a-side with a maximum match night squad size of 10, while football leagues range from 5-a-side to 7-a-side. Football leagues also allow for three extra squad members, providing flexibility in team formations.

Each season at Powerplay lasts between 1. 5 to 3 months. At the end of the season, the division winners receive a trophy, and the top two teams are promoted while the bottom two teams are relegated. The next mini-season starts the following week, ensuring a continuous and dynamic playing experience.

Powerplay's league format is designed to be fast-moving and enjoyable. With shorter seasons, every game becomes vital and can have a significant impact on the standings and title race. This system ensures that teams are not stuck in mid-table for weeks on end and are always playing new and fresh opponents.

All the Powerplay leagues are well-organised, as they have honed their league organisational skills to perfection. They have an operations hotline for any queries, and on match nights, there is always a coordinator available at the venue to address any concerns.

Powerplay stands out from other 5-a-side leagues with their focus on quality match officials. On the netball court, you are guaranteed a B or C qualified official, while on the football pitch, all referees are FA qualified. This ensures that the games are fair, enjoyable, and played according to the rules.

Powerplay also solves the problem of team absences with their Gamefinder feature. If you are short of players for an upcoming match, you can use Gamefinder to quickly and easily recruit players to fill in. This ensures that your team can still compete without any disruptions.

Whether you are a serious team looking for strong competition, a group of friends in need of a post-work wind-down, or simply want to enjoy a casual training session, Powerplay has something for everyone. They have thousands of happy players who have experienced the professionalism, quality, and fun that Powerplay brings to their leagues.
