Check whether your version includes The Grounds, find the Clubs entrance, and choose a first activity with friends.

THE SHORT ANSWER
The Grounds, including Clubs, is listed for PS5, Xbox Series X|S, PC and Nintendo Switch 2. The game’s wider platform availability does not mean this mode exists on every version.
Check the version before planning the session
EA limits The Grounds and Clubs to PS5, Xbox Series X|S, PC and Nintendo Switch 2. Do not infer PS4, Xbox One or original Switch support from the base game’s store availability. Mode availability and crossplay compatibility are separate questions: this list alone does not promise that two different platforms can join the same match.
Where Clubs lives
The Terrace connects the world’s districts. The Clubhouse entrance takes you into Clubs, including Leagues and Playoffs. Stadium access points serve 11v11 Drop-in and Rush experiences. If your group wants a conventional match, agree on that destination before everyone wanders into a different activity.
Pick a first activity
Small-sided play includes 1v1, 2v2, 3v3 and Rush. Kickabouts use alternative football activities. Our suggestion: start with one activity everyone understands, play a short practice round, then decide whether to stay or move into a more competitive session. Avoid turning the first evening into a tour of every menu.
A better group-night plan
Choose one person to organize the invitation, confirm each player’s version, and leave time for account or control setup. Agree whether the session is practice, casual competition or a specific club objective. Give new players a moment to read the activity rules before starting. These small decisions remove more friction than sending an invitation with no shared plan.
If you cannot find the mode
Read the platform and version shown in your installed library, then compare it with the supported list above. Check that you are launching the intended version rather than another edition already installed on the same device. If the version matches, consult the current in-game navigation and EA support; do not assume a missing tile proves a server outage.
