SOCCA is the most played sport in the world – in the neighborhood, with friends. It is ours and that is why we give it a home. The word “Socca” is a reference to “Soccer”, the game played on the big field. With us, the field is smaller, the word shorter and the excitement all the greater. So much can happen in 2×20 minutes of play that it keeps the spectators on the edge of their seats. They fever along, because every second something new can happen. We love Socca because it’s so familiar and turns guys like you and me into stars. But don’t underestimate what you see on the field! The game is fast and solutions have to be found in a small space. That requires players with very good ball handling skills and a high level of tactical thinking. That’s why only the best make it to the national team.
