Women’s Walking football
ABOUT
Our Women’s Walking Football here at AFC Wimbledon Foundation enjoy a slow-paced version of football, designed to help participants keep an active lifestyle, improve their physical and mental wellbeing, and boost their self-confidence!
The team was formed when a few keen players who are part of the Forever Fishponds initiate that aims to increase the use of Fish Ponds Playing Fields a local asset, came together with the desire to do something new and exciting. The group has grown from strength to strength and now averages about 12 players per week. Most players join us with little or no experience, some have never kicked a football in their lives before, while others have only played in the park with their children or grandchildren but always wanted to give it a go!
We encourage you to come on down next Thursday to learn a new skill and meet new friends….

See below for why our participants love these sessions
“When I was a kid I wanted to play football, but they told me I couldn’t because I was a girl. Now I can and it’s wonderful.”
“It’s been great to play football again, at a pace I can manage. A lovely way to make new friends and exercise outdoors.”
“I look forward to our weekly sessions, learning new skills making new friends and getting fit at the same time. A lovely environment to exercise in.”
