5-a-side Football Field Size: How Much Space and Dimensions Are Required?

Many individuals who are interested in investing in an artificial turf football field business often wonder about the standard field dimensions and how much total space is required to plan the layout according to their available land or to make investment decisions for a football field rental business.
A standard 5-a-side football field size typically measures 22x42 meters, which equals a total area of 924 square meters (including a 1-meter safety zone on each side).
The playing area inside the lines measures 20x40 meters, or 800 square meters, which is perfectly suited for 5 players per team (totaling 10 players on the pitch).
Generally, it is common to rotate around 3 teams to ensure everyone gets a chance to rest. This format is suitable for children, teenagers, adults, and even seniors because the running area is much smaller compared to larger pitches like 7-a-side, 9-a-side, or 11-a-side fields.

5-a-side Football Field Size
Football Field: The recommended total land area should be at least 1 Rai (approx. 1,600 square meters) or more.

This minimum space allows you to construct a clubhouse, parking spaces, or potentially a restaurant and café. However, when building a football field, the size does not strictly have to match the official standard. Dimensions can be slightly adjusted down or up based on the suitability of each specific area where you plan to build the field.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) About 5-a-side Football Field Sizes

Question Answer from Greeny Grass Experts
Can a 5-a-side football field be built if the space is smaller than the standard 22x42 meters? Yes, it can be built. The 22x42 meter dimension (including the safety zone) is simply the most popular standard size that offers the best gameplay experience. However, if you have land constraints, the size can be adjusted down as needed.
How many square meters of artificial turf are required to build a standard 5-a-side football field? If built according to the standard size of 22x42 meters (including a 1-meter safety zone around the field), a total of 924 square meters of artificial turf will be required. However, if calculating only the playing area inside the lines (20x40 meters), it would be 800 square meters. We highly recommend installing artificial turf over the entire space, including the safety zone, for player safety when running out of bounds.
If I want to start a rental field business, how much extra space should be allocated for amenities besides the field itself? We recommend having a total land area of at least 1 Rai (approx. 1,600 square meters) or more per field to ensure you have enough space for:
  • Parking Space: To accommodate at least 10-15 cars per playing session.
  • Clubhouse / Restrooms / Showers: For changing clothes and relaxing between matches.
  • Retail Zone: Beverage shops or cafés to help generate an extra stream of revenue.
