Whittlesea U3A’s walking sports program is going from strength to strength, led by an impressive result at the recent Australian Masters Games in Adelaide.
In collaboration with the City of Whittlesea, the group sent three teams – two men’s and one women’s – interstate to compete in the walking soccer event from October 12 to 14.
The women’s team, comprised of members from six different nationalities with its oldest player aged 80, managed to bring home a bronze medal for their efforts.
Walking sports organiser Mick Trim said it was the second time a Whittlesea U3A team had travelled interstate to compete in walking soccer, however the third place in Adelaide was its best result so far.
