Five Alive is the name of one of South West London's most under-achieving five-a-side football teams. They are named after the soft drink on account of the fact that they used to play in lurid yellow and green kit. Now Five Alive have "sold out" and are wearing nike kits in the style of Inter Milan.


Rumour has it that the infamous Jim Dore used to play for the team but given their league positions and history it seems unlikely that he would have ever got in the team.
