What Is Electric Shock Football?
Electric Shock Football uses a small device that tend to be strapped to a players leg. Another player will have control of a remote which when pressed, sends a signal to the device which then emits electric shocks to the wearer. It’s a hilarious activity which challenges players to stay on their feet whilst being shocked!
Is Electric Shock Football safe?
The electric shocks emitted are only meant to give you a quick sharp shock rather than cause any pain.
What clothing is recommended?
It is recommended to wear jogging bottoms or tracksuit bottoms as you may slide along the floor.
Suitable trainers and a short sleeve top are also required.
Please DO NOT wear football boots with studs / blades!

Venue Questions
Can I book / provide my own venue?
Yes, we can travel to your venue.
We will need approximately 25m x 25m, access to power and the surface must be suitable for a sporting activity with no obstacles or uneven ground that could cause injury. The pitch hired must be either grass, astro, 3G/4G or all weather multi purpose. We cannot play on concrete or tennis courts. If you are playing indoors this must be a sports hall and we will need clearance from the sports centre to use the facility.
If you provide your own venue and we are unable to run your activity due to health and safety (above requirements not met) there will be no refund.
Why can’t you source a venue before I book my event?
If you are in a location where we do not have a tried and tested venue then we will need to source a venue locally to you. We will usually source a venue in your area within seven to ten days of receiving your deposit payment. Once your deposit is paid we will then source a local venue, usually this venue will be at most within a 20 minute drive of your location. Timings requested upon booking may fluctuate by up to an hour either side of your requested event timings but we will do our best to secure your ideal time.
What is a 3G/4G pitch?
3G/4G pitches are the most significant and successful development in synthetic surface technology designed for football and rugby at both competitive and recreational levels.
In 3G turf, the pile (artificial grass ‘blades’) is supported by a thin base layer of sand, and by an infill of rubber crumb.
The pile height ranges from 40mm to 65mm depending on which primary sport is to be played on the surface.
Is there parking and changing facilities at my venue?
Most of our venues have shower and changing facilities that can be used before leaving your event, please ask us to confirm at time of booking.
Parking is venue dependent, and if required please inform us and we can look to accommodate this.
