OUR STORY

Hey, I’m Charlie - Founder of Kickerbout!

​

For as long as I can remember, football has been my anchor. It gave me fitness, friendships, and a reason to look forward to weeknights and weekends (cue the Champions League music 🎶). It even led me into a decade of coaching, helping others find joy through the game.

​

But then life happened. Without football as a regular outlet, the weeks started blending into each other. Work got busier, social circles shifted, and the routine quietly disappeared. 

​

I realised I wasn't the only one. A lot of adults drift away from playing without meaning to. Life fills the calendar, but the simple things that make the week better get squeezed out. 

​

That’s why I started Kickerbout.

​

We’ve created a community where football is simple to access. It’s a chance for you to play the game you love, be around good people, and bring football back into your weekly rhythm.

​

My coaching experience has given me the tools to make games fun and inclusive. Seeing players walk away lighter, fitter, and smiling after a session is what makes me happiest.

​

So if you’ve hung up your boots (without meaning to), Kickerbout is your chance to lace them up again. The transfer window’s open and we’re looking for free agents  🎉
