We've partnered with sphere to bring their soccer-inspired workouts to Madison. The workouts are soccer-inspired, but you don't need to know anything about soccer to participate. In fact, they were designed with the non-soccer player in mind. Each practice consists of a 15 minute workout followed by 45 minutes of structured open play - all set to music. People of all abilities and skill levels are welcome, and rule #1 is that there are no strangers on the field. sphere's mission is to build a community and connect, not compete.

Why sphere? The format is non-competitive, there are no refs and no scorecards, and bad apples are not tolerated, so it fits into the social sports category well. It's also a great option for those who are new to town and don't have a team or those who can't commit to a weekly game for an extended period of time. It's membership-based, and you can choose from two options depending on which one best fits your schedule.

• Season pass: allows you to pay once and play every week through late March.
• Drop-in: Allows you to pay only for the sessions you attend if you can't commit to playing every week. You can pay online or bring cash to the gym

Locations

• 2025 indoor sessions are held at Lowell Elementary

Weather and Scheduling

• There is no session on 3/27, as schools are closed for spring break
• We unfortunately can't use the gym if schools are closed due to snow, extreme cold, or other normal winter weather that the school district deems too dangerous for children
