Walking Football
What is Walking Football?
Our recreational Walking Football sessions are held every week on the 3G at The Jakemans Community Stadium, and cost £5 per session.

It is important to stay fit, active and healthy whatever your age. As you get older, regular exercise and playing a physical game such as walking football can help you build and improve your strength, increase your core stability, help you to lose or maintain your weight and improve your muscles. It can sometimes be hard to keep steady on your feet, but walking football can also help to improve your balance.
All of our coaches are fully qualified and have FA First Aid, DBS checked and have attended safeguarding workshops. Our coaches are all fully qualified and hold FA or UEFA coaching qualifications.
We also run walking football teams at various age groups. If you’d like more information or would like to join, please email lewis.wright@bufc.co.uk.
