You might say it’s been a walk in the park.
The first outing for the Walking Football Association’s South West region women over 60s team – which now proudly wears the Punchline-Gloucester.com logo in the wake of our kit sponsorship deal last December – has been a cracking success.
So much so that England scouts have signed up two of the team’s players!
Julia Tibbs, spokeswoman, told Punchline-Gloucester.com: “We had the first round of the Women’s Super League on Saturday at the University of Gloucestershire and it was absolutely brilliant – our first proper super league. We really held our own and the team played really well – all looking really smart in the new kit.”
She added that a huge accolade for the achievements of the team came with specific news for players Lyn McLoughlin and Karen Peacock.
Scouts for the England Over 60s Women squad who were attending the WFA’s Women’s Super League Regional Tournament spotted the talents of the pair – and have now signed them up for the England squad.
