WHAT IS BUBBLE SOCCER?
Bubble soccer is a version of soccer that’s played in a bubble. Players wear a plastic bubble that covers their head to their thigh, leaving most of their legs and feet free to run and kick the soccer ball. Teams will be made up of 3-5 players (must be 18 and older), with 3 players playing for each team at once. There will be no goalies.
HOW MUCH DOES IT COST?
The minimum cost to participate is $30 per player, which can be fundraised on this website. There will be prizes awarded to the winning teams as well as the top fundraising individuals and teams. EACH participant must sign up on this website. You can invite other team members once you create your own team. Each player will receive a t-shirt, lunch and beverages.
