Walking Football
2025-07-09 13:00 - 14:00, 2025-09-10 13:00 - 14:00 (Europe/London) | NUCASTLE, Diana Street, Newcastle upon Tyne, NE4 6BQ, United Kingdom
Walking football is a fun and safe way for players to enjoy football and socialise together, in teams up to 7-a-side.
Walking football involves no running, jogging, or heading. Physical contact is kept to a minimum – no slide tackling or tackling from behind. The ball has to stay below chest height.
Our walking football group runs every Wednesday from 1-2pm. We take regular drinks breaks, and have with mixed teams of men and women and a variety of age groups and abilities. The coaches at Newcastle United Foundation are all highly skilled, and make sure that everyone feels included and goes home with a smile on their face.
These sessions are free of charge, thanks for kind sponsorship from Sintons.
We always welcome new players – if you would like to give it a try, please contact us to find out more.
