Walking Football Kicks off on the North Shore
It’s ‘the beautiful game’ with a twist that makes it accessible to all people.
Walking football originated in the UK just over ten years ago designed to keep the elderly active and socially engaged. It’s now becoming popular around the world and an upcoming gala events go to walkingfootballnewzealand.org.nz events page.
Wax Eye Sports and Performing Arts Trust Inc National co-ordinator Neil Haines a former New Zealand International had heard about the slower version of football earlier this year.
“It’s a non-contact sport so it means as an older person I can continue doing something I love,” he said. “Anyone over 50, sight or hearing impaired, amputees, Parkinson disease or mental health can play. It allows men and woman of different fitness levels to get out of the house and join in a community activity based locally.” “It’s not just for older people but also for those who have a physical impairment. We’re getting people here to give it a go because it might not just be the football side of it, alone but also the connection to other people that they might enjoy,”
He’s inviting those interested in fundraising for groups or individuals using walking football New Zealand as the game can involve families and community members of all ages to help raise funds. Go to ‘write us a message page” at walkingfootballnewzealand.org.nz
