Leisure Buddy

Watch Football at a Local Venue

Watch the match the way locals do, a busy local venue, iced beer or tea, and a Buddy who can explain everything happening around you.

Watch the match the way locals do, at a busy public venue, with a Buddy who explains the room. Iced beer or tea if you want it. The venue depends on which match is showing, so your Buddy suggests one and you agree it before the night. Your drinks and food are paid by you.

What is included and what is not

  • Your Buddy's time and company for the booked hours, paid in cash after the experience
  • Suggesting a venue that is showing the match, agreed with you beforehand
  • Translation and ordering throughout the match
  • Drinks, food and any entry charge, paid by you on the night
  • Taxi or Grab to the venue and home
  • Personal travel insurance

Safety, helmet and clothing

  • No scooter is involved. You walk or take your own Grab to the venue and home again.
  • Casual and comfortable. Venues are crowded on big match nights, so leave anything you would hate to lose at home.
  • Most venues are covered and the match goes ahead in any weather. Street-side seating may move indoors if it rains.

Your responsibilities

  • Drink responsibly; your Buddy is not responsible for how much you drink
  • Keep your belongings close in a crowded venue
  • Follow your Buddy's lead if the crowd or the venue starts to feel uncomfortable
  • Pay the venue directly, in cash, for what you order
