Meet Natalie Broadhead, the driving force behind the establishment of ‘Walking Football’ in a small New Zealand community.
The Football Development Officer for WaiBop Football attended a Workshop delivered by New Zealand Football’s Shane Verma and Professor Harry Hubbard from the University of British Columbia in January, on Walking Football.
She came away inspired to kickstart Walking Football in her region.
Targeted at older people, Walking Football is a low-intensive inclusive form of exercise which encourages physical wellbeing and mental wellbeing. It is adaptable to play on grass, artificial turf, a futsal or basketball court or any indoor surface.
