Until now, over 40s men haven’t been allowed in competitive Walking Football. We want to make the game as accessible as possible and we think there is an appetite for the game for over 40’s men. This tournament will give over 40’s men the chance to play competitively.
Not just for men
Women have been playing at over 40’s for some time, and we want to level the field. To that end, we are not excluding women from playing in this tournament. In fact we are encouraging clubs to enter mixed squads for this event.
