Walking Football

 

Allowing people to play the sport they love at a pace and intensity that’s right for them, Walking Football has quickly become one of our most popular initiatives.

Despite not being a standalone project, Walking Football has continued to grow since it was introduced and we deliver a range of weekly sessions in Swansea’s local communitites.

 

The all-inclusive sport has allowed our elder participants to improve their health and wellbeing by offering them the opportunity to engage in physical activity in a social environment, and also offers them the opportunity to represent the Swans at local and national tournaments.

 

Additionally we have partnered with Morriston Hospital's Traumatic Brain Injury Service to offer walking football as an exit pathway following completion of our SUTS BT course. Offering free Walking Football sessions for the participants, Walking Football has enabled them to not only improve their fitness, but to help them cope better with, and adapt to, life after a brain injury.

 

Offering free Walking Football sessions for the veterans, Walking Football has enabled them to not only improve their fitness, but to help them cope better with, and adapt to, civilian life.
