AirPitch USA
Our Mission
We are on a mission to provide the best environments for players to enjoy the game whilst bringing AirPitch's intense format that is used by the top clubs and associations in the world to better their players. Small-sided football games in inflatable pitch boundaries with 1 to 5 players on each team. Small-sided games increases ball-touches, passing, and scoring. The kids
learn to be quick on their feet and to keep the ball moving fast. All modern coaches are using this in the daily training for more effective technical development and kids have been playing it in the streets, parks, and gardens since the beginning of the game.
“The benefit to training in smaller spaces is you don’t give players time to think." Pep Guardiola, Manager, Man. City
Why do we use AirPitch systems? We did not "invent the wheel", but we did develop a tool that makes the small-sided game-play more fun, intense and inclusive. By separating any normal football field into several AirPitches, we can fit a large number of players at the same time and keep the ball rolling with a minimum of stops in the game. There is no young (or old) player on the planet who does not enjoy playing inside one of these regardless of skill level, gender, or physical challenge. Playing more smaller side games in practice and on competitive match days may well be the answer to developing more skilflul players in all positions of the pitch." The English FA study March 2022. The statistics of AirPitch Soccer
Our AirPitch tournaments have an average of 492 players in one day, organized on a regular sized 11aside filed. Statistics shows that the ball keeps in play for 83% of the time and the number of player touches on the ball and goals are many times multiplied compared to traditional formats. The German and English Football Federation have done extensive research on this field and the conclusions are unquestionable. "With fewer players and the ball rolling for the full ten minutes due to the fench, each outfielder had a whopping 71 touches on average. The result? Loads of opportunities to practice core skills, both attacking and defending". The English FA study March 2022
