TLDR : Answer Summary
A user inquiring about places to play soccer in Chiang Mai received various suggestions, including checking out the field opposite the main stadium in the 700-year complex, exploring meetup groups for sports, and considering local clubs or facilities. Some comments highlighted a lighthearted debate about the terminology used for soccer versus football.

 wrong!

Soccer is what people from the USA call football, because they can't think of a more appropriate name for the game they play with their hands (throwing/catching/running).

The USA game is only really played in the USA.

The rest of the world calls the game you call soccer, football.

Copied and pasted from other site, I googled:

I don't play football myself, but I have often see relatively organized amateurs (I mean, teams with same color tricot) train and play in the field opposite from the main stadium in the 700y complex. If you don't know, ask for the track-and-field or petanque, it's at the top of a small road leading up from the main circle road. Perhaps you could ask there.

However, the whole facility was being refurbished during Covid, I am not sure it's re-opened by now
