We know it can be hard to find fun activities for your youth group, class, or event that is also educational and spiritual.

Nomad Cage Soccer is a sports programme from Youth for Christ that uses a portable soccer cage, panna-knockout rules and a team of passionate young interns who promote positive values and engage young people in faith conversations on their turf, throughout the Republic of Ireland.

Enjoy the Fun

Our team arrives, sets up the cage, and delivers an amazing day of fun, soccer, and an inspiring team talk.

Cage Soccer

The Cage allows young people to play a 2-on-2 soccer game called panna-knockout, a game based on skill, control and communication. The cage can be erected anywhere with a flat surface, a school playground or in a sports hall. Strict Health and Safety procedures are adhered to at all times when using the soccer cage, which is manned by Nomad team members, and clear rules are outlined before each session begins.

Team Talk

During the cage sessions the Nomad team can deliver team talks or testimonies where we can encourage your group with real life stories of transformation to help them better understand life and the Christian faith.

Testimonials

  • “We had the guys from Nomad visit us in Hamilton High school with their soccer cage. The students really it an couldn’t get enough. It was well organised, and different from anything they’d tried before. It was good craic and good for working on soccer skills – I would highly recommend it”.

    John, Teacher, Hamilton High School

  • “The lads came to Newpark and took PE, RE and SPHE classes as well as staying back in the afternoon for others who wishes to experience the cage. The queue was around the corner! Students found it engaging and fun. Many students had meaningful conversations with youth workers, who were great role models. I highly recommend this different approach for curricualr support, activities and retreat days”.
