National team matches provide an escape - emotion, laughter, friend gatherings, shouts, jumps... In short, the king of sports has done it again. But today I have one wish: for my readers to stop watching, stop seeing, and start living it first-hand, in a very special way.
Two words: Bubble Soccer. It's all about bubbles - those things we sometimes wish we had to abstract ourselves from reality. And believe it or not, it's now in our hands (yours too) to protect yourself inside one, with the invaluable, non-negotiable company of fun. Sounds good, right?
Simply put, this innovative activity involves playing football while wrapped in a bubble covering you from knees to head, leaving only your legs functionally mobile. Forget the rules. Ball to the centre circle and play without fear, as contact between teammates will send you rolling to the sound of laughter.
Of course, the difficulty is part (or all) of the fun. Your football skills don't matter here - even hitting the spherical ball is an achievement. Every attempt to score will feel monumental.
Now the million-dollar question: where can we enjoy this sport? Here are some recommendations across different regions.
Bubble Soccer Málaga
They even offer accommodation packages, perfect for exploring the Costa del Sol beyond the bubble. Bubble Soccer Málaga ensures an unforgettable experience by including a photo report of your match.
Requirements? Easy peasy. Bring at least five friends (maximum ten), and be over 12 years old - or bring parental consent if younger.
The pitch features artificial grass, ideal for rolling and tumbling.
