Join San Pedro Amigos Walking Football Club on October 18 for a fun, friendly tournament for over-50s. Stay active
SAN PEDRO Amigos Walking Football Club is inviting players and supporters to take part in their upcoming tournament on Saturday, October 18. The event kicks off at 9:45am and promises a day of friendly competition, community spirit, and plenty of fun.
A slower pace of football
Walking football has become increasingly popular in recent years, offering people over 50 the chance to keep playing the sport they love in a safer and more accessible way. By slowing the pace and removing running from the game, it allows participants to enjoy football while reducing the risk of injury. For many, it is also a great way to stay fit, active, and social.
Welcoming players of all abilities
The San Pedro Amigos group has built a reputation for welcoming players of all abilities. Some members have returned to the game after years away, while others are trying football for the first time. The focus is less on winning and more on enjoying the activity and building friendships.
Raffle to support future activities
After the tournament, a raffle will be held to raise funds and support future activities. Anyone wishing to donate prizes is encouraged to get in touch with the organizers on Facebook (San Pedro Amigos Walking Football).
Strengthening community ties
Organizers say they hope the day will highlight the benefits of walking football while also strengthening community ties.
