What is Walking Football?
- It is low-impact, team-based exercise, utilising the defined 'Walking Football Rules and Formats' specifically non-contact with the players 'always having one foot on the ground'.
- Matches are played with modified formats (5v5/6v6) on smaller pitches with shortened game times.
- Walking Football aims to provide participants physical & mental health benefits, social contentedness and promotion of the benefits of ongoing physical activity.

How Walking Football is Played
- Running is NOT allowed. A participant always has to have one foot on the ground.
- It is a non-contact version of the game.
- The ball cannot be kicked above head height.
- There is no heading of the ball.
- There are no 'referees' as such and the competitive angle is kept to a minimum.
- The focus is on fun and making friends.
- The program focuses on passing rather than speed/running, with flexible field sizes.
- The focus is health through exercise, enjoying the love of the game and having fun and making connections.
