What is Cage Football pitch?

Cage football, often referred to as cageball or branded concepts such as Soccerground, is a form of small-sided football played on a fully enclosed football pitch. Unlike traditional open football fields, a soccer cage uses steel posts, sandwich panels, and high-strength netting to create a continuous playing environment where the ball remains in play at all times.
From an engineering and operational perspective, cage football pitches are divided into two main categories:

fixed soccer cage

Fixed (Permanent) Soccer Cage

A fixed soccer cage is installed on a prepared base (concrete or asphalt) and designed for long-term, high-frequency use.

Key Characteristics:

  • Permanent foundation
  • Commercial-grade artificial turf
  • Designed for daily operation (clubs, community facilities, schools)
  • Typical lifespan: 6–10 years
portable soccer cage

Portable (Mobile) Soccer Cage

Portable soccer cages are modular systems intended for temporary installations.

Key characteristics:

  • Modular steel frames
  • Short-pile or modular turf
  • Event-based or promotional use
  • Lower durability, limited daily usage

Globally, over 80% of cageball facilities use fixed soccer cage systems, because cage football is not an event product—it is a long-term sports infrastructure asset.

Cage Football Pitch Sizes

Cage football pitches are optimized for intensity, speed, and continuous play, not full-size match regulations. The most common formats are 5-a-side cage football and 7-a-side cage football.

5 a side cage football pitch

5-a-Side Cage Football Pitch

This is the global commercial standard.

  • Typical size: 20 × 40 m
  • Playing area: 800 m²
  • With safety buffer zones: 900–1000 m² football turf required
  • Most popular for:
    • Commercial cage soccer fields
    • Urban football cage projects
    • Training academies
7 a side cage football pitch

7-a-Side Cage Football Pitch

Used where slightly larger space is available.

  • Typical size: 30 × 50 m (varies by region)
  • Higher player capacity
  • Often used in schools or sports parks

Key Characteristics of Cage Football Pitches

Flexible Use of Space

Cage football pitches require significantly less land than traditional football fields, making them ideal for:

  • Urban communities
  • Training bases
  • Rooftops
  • Sports complexes with limited space

The enclosed design increases player interaction, demanding higher technical ability and faster decision-making.
