The over-60s and over-50s teams from the Poole based Dexter Sports Football Club competed in the Regional Finals at Exeter University.
Poole walking football squads have taken part in the recent Regional Finals of the FA Walking Football Cup at Exeter University.
Dexter Sports WFC’s over-60s team suffered close defeats in their four league round matches by the odd goal or two in each game, despite dominating at least two of the matches. They were made to pay for missed chances but came away assured they were never outclassed and confident of going further in next year’s tournament.
The over-50s fared better, playing their way through the league round and into the final, where they met Torquay United. The Dexter team was made to pay again for missed opportunities. Two penalty chances that were missed at 0-0 meant that Torquay had a way back into the final. They took full advantage and recovered to go on and win 0-2.
Both squads hope to reach the National Finals next season.
