Walking Football

Walking Football is a popular and growing format of the game, Walking Football is aimed at encouraging older adults and those with long-standing injuries to play football again on a regular basis. As simple as the name suggests, Walking Football really is just football at walking pace. But don’t let that fool you; It carries all the emotion, passion and excitement of a regular game and still requires skills such as accurate passing, good positional play and strong tactical knowledge.

The game is small-sided, with no running on or off the ball, very little contact and kick-ins instead of throw-ins. With less stress on the body and no real sudden change of direction or cutting movements, the game allows participants to play without apprehension.
