Why did you get involved in walking football?
Jennifer: “I first got involved in walking football by going along to see my husband play. He had moved up from Wales and was looking to meet new people and get back into playing football. I was very overweight and unfit so knew that playing recreational football was not an option. I thought Walking football was a good starting point to get back into playing again.”
Alan: “Initially I got involved in walking football mainly to play a game I love and take some exercise while meeting new people.”
