Hello, Lyudmila!
First of all, let's figure out what qualities a floor should have for equipping sports fields (in your case, mini-football fields). There are not so many:
high hardness, which will avoid dents and damage to the floor surface;
resistance to variable loads;
ductility - otherwise mechanical stress will lead to cracking of the surface layer;
ecological cleanliness, since we are talking about the construction of a sports ground.
In addition, the coating should not be slippery, which means that you will need a material with the highest coefficient of friction. Several types of bulk floors correspond to these conditions, but the most suitable in this case are polyurethane systems with rubber crumb and multi-colored fillers.
For your purposes, you can recommend the well-recommended self-leveling coatings for sports facilities Gecko MS, BSW, CRUMB and others. They are highly resistant to shock loads, have excellent cushioning properties and copes well with elastic deformations. Due to the fact that such floors are well resistant to moisture, they can be used both in open and closed areas, and the possibility of painting in various colors allows you to get sites with the desired layout.
Any capital bases are suitable for arranging a bulk polyurethane floor with rubber crumb - concrete, sand and cement screed, asphalt, etc., just do it yourself is not recommended because of the complexity of the technology and the high cost of materials - it is better to entrust the work to specialists.
