The Football Associaiton is leading the controversial selection of united British teams for the men’s and women’s football competitions, and has decided that both squads will spend at least some time in the main athletes’ village in Stratford.
The decision means that players more used to luxuriating in five-star suites on club and international duty could have to share rooms in the more austere village environment.
The majority of athletes will be housed in shared rooms or apartments with more than one bed in each room. There are only a handful of single rooms and these will be reserved for special cases.
The 2012 organising committee has committed to having a bed for every competitor, however, and will welcome the presence of high-profile footballers. The squads are only likely to spend a few days in the Stratford village as the football competition will take them around the UK.
The women’s opening game, scheduled for Cardiff on July 25, will be the first event of the 2012 Games, coming two days before the opening ceremony.
They will play a second game in Cardiff before finishing their group matches at Wembley. The men’s team will begin at Old Trafford, then play at Wembley and Cardiff.
Beckham and Bale are both likely to feature on a long-list of possible players due to be selected in October. The English veteran is desperate to feature as one of the three players aged over 23 permitted in what will eventually be an 18-strong squad.
Beckham will also help sell tickets and replica shirts manufactured by his boot supplier, but the
FA and British Olympic Association insist that selection will be based on football rather than celebrity criteria.
Bale and his Wales international colleague Aaron Ramsey are seen as crucial to the success of the British team as their presence would deliver genuine British representation.
Players selected on the long-list who want to win a place in the final squads of 18 will then have to declare their availability. The issue is sensitive for Scottish, Welsh and Northern Irish players, whose unions oppose their participation.
The managers of the two teams will be announced shortly, with England Under-21 coach Stuart Pearce and England women’s manager Hope Powell expected to fill the roles.

David Beckham and Gareth Bale could find themselves sharing a room in the Olympic Village next summer following a decision by the Football Association to ensure that the Team GB footballers fully immerse themselves in the spirit of London 2012.
