Background

BlitzLiga is a six-a-side football league in Moscow. We have also held a summer tournament by the beach in Nida, Lithuania.

The league launched in September 2012 with four teams, two of whom had previously been competing in TopMen Club. It is currently managed by David Pauley and is in its 30th season.

The league has had twenty-seven members (in order of arrival):
Coalition; ING*; Vverkh*; Desperado Black*; GreenTeam*; Basis*; Klerki*; Red Star (formerly International School of Moscow); British Embassy*; Freshmen*; Desperado White*; Bro-13*; Anthill*; Moystroitel*; B.O.R.T.*; The Six Offenders*; Black Rocket*; The Unsanctionables; Cavalry; CREF*; Great Warriors*; FC Unifin*; The Galactics, Happy Sundays*, Hammersmith Hardmen, Reptiles, Cqpital
* = absent in season 30, The Rebirth

We hold a party and awards ceremony each year on the night of the Champions’ League final.

The thirtieth season is currently in progress, with games held indoors.

Our referees are paid and most have experience at professional level.

During previous winter seasons, we have played indoors at CSKA’s indoor arena. In summer, we usually play at Luzhniki Pitch No.6. We have posted directions to CSKA and Luzhniki..
