Driven to despair over noise

I’ve lived in my house for 10 years, and in front of it there is a patch of grass with railings around it. Occasionally would get used by dog walkers to let their dogs run around off lead.

About a year ago a family a few doors away put a small football goal in there. Since then another one has been put up which is full sized. There used to be one or 2 boys playing football in there & it didn’t bother me. But now there are around 10+ kids there daily playing football for hours. Cars are always being hit, I’ve seen them weeing on the grass, and the constant shouting is driving me to despair.

The actual football I wasn’t bothered about (my own car has only been hit a couple of times) but the shouting is just on another level, I have to keep all windows shut.

There is a large playing field about a 5 minute walk away, but as the goals were put up on this bit of grass, that’s where they play.

Was looking at moving in a few years, but this is making me seriously consider doing it in the new year instead. Theres nothing I can do about this is there? I’ve checked the local council website already about ball games & seems I will just have to live with it :(
