Team Building in Bristol
Company football and padel for Bristol firms, from Temple Quarter to the Harbourside. Register interest in what your team wants.
The short answer
Is there a company football league in Bristol?
Not yet. There is no weekly football league where Bristol companies play each other, and that is what Secta runs in London. We are gauging Bristol now: register interest in friendlies, pitch bookings, leagues, tournaments or padel, and the first firms in become the founding teams.
Bristol mixes aerospace, tech, creative and financial and professional services firms, with law and accountancy firms around the Harbourside and new Grade A offices in Temple Quarter and Finzels Reach.
Bristol is also one of the UK's best-served padel cities, with several large indoor centres. Whether your team wants football or padel, a weekly league against the firms around you is what Secta runs. Tell us which format you would play.

Questions
Team Building in Bristol: FAQs
Where can Bristol companies play 5-a-side after work?
PlayFootball St Pauls is the nearest to the centre. Goals Bristol North in Stoke Gifford and Goals Bristol South in Brislington are the big centres, and PlayFootball Horfield runs weekday evening leagues.
Where can we play padel in Bristol as a team?
Rocket Padel in St Annes Park has fourteen indoor courts, Surge Padel in Fishponds has eight and The Padel Team in Easton has seven, so even a large team can play at once.
Is there a corporate football league in Bristol?
Not a weekly one between companies yet. If enough Bristol firms register interest, Secta will launch one, with the founding firms choosing the night and the venue. In the meantime we can set up a friendly against another company or book a pitch for your team.
What happens when we register interest for Bristol?
We note your company, the offer and roughly how many players. When Bristol has enough interest for a venue, you hear first and help choose the night and the format. Registering commits you to nothing.
Can you run a one-off event for us sooner?
Possibly. Tell us what you have in mind, your numbers and your date, and we will tell you honestly whether we can run it.
