All through the Summer…

The Premier League, european competitions and the FA Cup are all coming to an end for the Summer, but that’s not the case with walking football – we just keep on going!

OK, we know about Euro ’24 and other sports are available, but there’s just something about playing football isn’t there? My point is, walking football doesn’t have an off season – we continue to train and play tournaments right through the Summer, until the next Dorset League starts in September(ish).

Warmer weather

With warmer, dryer weather on the way, perhaps you’d like to join us for a spot of football in a friendly, safety first environment. We train on Friday evenings (7pm) at the home of the Dorset FA – County Ground in Hamworthy.

First session is free

Your first session is free, to see what it’s about, then each session after that is £5. If you fancy coming along, drop Paul a line – he can tell you all you need to know. We regularly have over 20 players attend training on a Friday.

We’ve just completed the 2023/24 Dorset Walking Football League, in which we entered a 50s and 60s team. Tournaments aren’t compulsory, but there for anyone who’d like to represent the club. If all you want is to train and make new friends, that’s just fine.

What’s coming up

We have three tournaments lined up for May and June already, including a charity event for Prostate Cancer UK, a friendly tournament in Devon and the Dorset League Cup in early June. We’re also encouraging players along to our Women’s Walking Football sessions with Lilliput FC on Tuesday evenings in Rossmore.

Oh, and we mustn’t forget the end of season get-together!
