I've been tagging 5-a-side as its own sport, but willing to amend them to sub-tags. Note I used hyphens not underscores, which is how it's described in most dictionaries: https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/five-a-side

DaveF.

I don't mind either way - sub tag or as complete new tags. For structure and as the tag has been used, at least as I have come across it in the UK, sub tags looks to be better? Don't know for sure.

I have used hyphens for shot-put as that is a combined word and that is how it appears in dictionaries. However that throws errors in osmose and one person has objected to it saying it should be an underscore. For a substitute for a space traditionally an underscore is used. Five a side (with or with out underscores/hyphens nor 5 rather than five) is not in my Australian dictionary of some 1,400 A4 pages.

I don't like reducing 11_a_side to 11 .. I don't think that people will realise what it means as easily without referring to a wiki.

There are several varieties of soccer;


The traditional 11 a side game. The pitch size is on the OSMwiki page http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Tag:sport%3Dsoccer .


9 a side ... so 18 players in total.


5 a side so 10 people total.


A version for the 'younger people' (children) usually called 'mini soccer".


================

I think these would be best tagged with the added sub tag of

soccer= 11_a_side(default)/9_a_side/5_a_side/mini_soccer/*


Where * can be used to describe whatever version that may come later or be in existence now.
