How to play a football career quiz
Guess a footballer from their clubs. Learn how to prepare career clues, agree on loan spells and keep score with friends.
Guess the player from their clubs
One player prepares a footballer’s clubs in chronological order. The other guesses without seeing the name. Decide whether your game includes only senior clubs or also youth teams and loan spells.
Prepare accurate clues
Check club history against official player or club biographies. Mark loan spells clearly and keep national teams out of the club sequence. Returns to the same club can appear as separate spells.
Use a simple scoring rule
Reveal the first club, then another after each wrong guess. Start a round at five points and deduct one per extra clue, with a minimum of one point for a correct answer. If nobody solves the final clue, move on without awarding points.
Play a short round with friends
Take turns preparing questions and compare scores after five questions. This guide does not include an automated career database or answer checker; verify your questions against sources before playing.
