Default Soccer field in Dubai?

Can anybody tell me if there is a purpose built 5 aside soccer/football centre in Dubai,similar to those in the UK that use artificial turf?

Welcome to the forum, banus. I made a thread out of your post, because no one was going to find it buried in the other one.

Some of my colleagues were playing in a sponsored tournament last Friday. There are some fantastic purpose built pitches up by Jebel Ali shooting club.

Google 'Dubai 5 a side football' for more information on various clubs, teams etc.

I've seen people playing 5-a-side, 4-a-side, etc. in Jumeirah Beach Park. It's sand though not arty-pitch.

5 dirhams to enter the beach park. Bring a ball and they will come.
