Walking Football programs focus on passing rather than speed/running.
Matches are played with modified formats (5v5/6v6) on smaller pitches with shortened game times, utilising the defined ‘Walking Football Rules and Formats,’ specifically non-contact with the players ‘always having one foot on the ground’.
Clubs and centres across the state host weekly Walking Football sessions for those wanting to play regularly.
