On the weekends and in the afternoons you can find men's soccer games in Flamingo Park. It's cool to show up and ask to play. The main park entrance is on Meridian Street and 11th Street, and the soccer field is down the block, near 14th Street.

You can also join in a game of soccer/volleyball on South Beach at around 8th St where South Americans play volleyball without their hands.

Flamingo Park, but for pick games you have to go to the East side of the park on Meridian Avenue. If you want to use the main field where the running track is, you have to have a team and pay a fee to the park administration. Unfortunately many local parks want you to pay a fee for maintenance/ grounds-keeping.

Some folks also play soccer on the beach, generally Jamaicans. If you go to North Beach, the area has a lot of Argentinians, and you'll definitely find a game (just specify that you're Scottish!).

There are few indoor soccer places (some with astro turf), if you're part of a team they play 6 on 6.

I know there's a few fields around little havana also. Pick up games are easier there I think.
