Take charge of your club
Benchside is a free football management game, playable solo or in a private league with friends. Lineups, transfers, finances, live matches - it's all there.
With friends, or alone against the computer
Create your own league and invite anyone with a link — or play on your own against the computer, with nobody to wait for.
Public leagues
Open to everyone, no code needed: you play against strangers. You choose how they kick off.
Quick league
To play right away: the season kicks off as soon as 6 managers have taken a club, and never waits more than three days.
Monday league
An appointment: the season kicks off at the announced time, however many have joined. A date to note down — and to send to friends.
