We are delighted to announce we are launching a Walking Football session from Tuesday 14 September.
The session will be weekly, every Tuesday 10-11am at The Honeywell Centre.
This session is open to any age and any ability. The session is not directly aimed at participants over a certain age, we do not want to exclude younger players returning from injury or those struggling with health issues.
