From a fenced cage with artificial turf to a patch of grass with two goals: over 61,000 pitches and soccer fields are on the map. On public pitches you just turn up and play, while club fields are often locked. In aupa, every place tells you which it is.
Surface, goal size, whether there are nets: the community fills that in bit by bit. Short of players for a game? Open a lobby. Anyone nearby sees that you’re still two short.
