KSI-backed Baller League, a new six-a-side football format, is set to launch in UK and US in 2025.
Having already launched in Germany earlier this year, the league blends “back to the roots” football with new rules designed to captivate fans.
Content creators KSI and IShowSpeed have been named as the presidents of the respective UK and US leagues.

The UK-based teams will feature a star-studded list of managers, including Gary Lineker, Alan Shearer, Micah Richards, Luis Figo, Freddie Ljungberg, and John Terry.
The UK league’s first matchday is slated for March 2025, with matches played in London’s indoor arenas and streamed live on Twitch and YouTube for free.
KSI said: “I have high hopes for what this league can bring to the sport. We’re bringing a different style to football, a different energy to the normal and showing a different level of entertainment to the sport.“
Social media star Chunkz will host the UK broadcast each week for people streaming in the UK.
