About the Event

Walking football is perfect for people with Parkinson’s as it is low contact, with no running but plenty of movement and cardio exercise.  Our walking football events are currently held on the first Monday of the month, but as interest grows we hope to increase the number of sessions.

All our football events are designed to be fun and supportive and are 1.5 hours long.  They typically comprise a short warm up and stretching exercises, group training and drills and small group matches, all at your own pace.

All new players must pre-register for their first event before they can play, please ensure you click the register button and submit the online registration form prior to attending.

Registration is subject to your agreement of our Member's Code of Conduct  which must be read and followed by all participants during our events. You can access this here.

Please do not participate in an event if you, or someone you live with, has tested positive for COVID in the last 10 days, or are awaiting test results, or has / had any of the following in last 10 days:

  1. A high temperature (above 37.8°C);
  2. A new, continuous cough
  3. A loss of, or change to, their sense of smell or taste.

On the night please:

  1. Bring your own easily identifable refreshments and hand sanitiser.
  2. Wear astro trainers or boots with moulded studs (no metal or screw-in studs please) and clothing appropriate for exercise. Bring layers as the temperatures in the training dome can often drop during colder evenings. Shin pads are optional.
  3. Once through security please park in the visitor car park. The car park is accessed at the end of the long entrance drive on the left hand side. You will see the Dome on the right as you drive up the entrance drive.
  4. Once inside the Dome, you will find us at the top half of the pitch, furthest from the Dome's entrance.
  5. And finally... please enjoy yourself!
