The HFA are pleased to announce the introduction of Walking Football in Herefordshire.
Walking Football
was initially designed to help get the over 50s back into football and
exercise. The main differences between standard football are the two
rules of no running and no slide tackles.
Play the game you
love but reduce the chances of injury. It's a great way to keep fit,
learn skills, have fun and socialise all at the same time!
If you think your footballing days are over then think again!
So, if you used to
play football but now find the pace a bit too much or if you’ve never
had the chance to be involved before, walking football is the perfect
introduction to playing football for people aged
50 years and over, no age limit!
All the rules are
the same but with one big difference, you can only walk – no running, no
sprinting, just walking. Any infractions are penalised by a free kick.
Deep down, are you still dying to play?
• A popular means of keeping fit, learning new skills, having fun and socializing!
• Never too old to play! Non-contact sport!
• The social aspect of the session as important as the game itself.
