ABOUT WALKING FOOTBALL NELSON...
Where we began
Started in 2019, Walking Football Nelson is targeted at the over 50's, but we are flexible on participation. We have some members in their 40's. Currently our sessions are the Nelson Girls College Gym on Wednesday nights from 6.15pm during the school terms.

Walking Football is aimed at keeping people involved with the sport if, due to a lack of mobility or injury (or other reasons), they are no longer able to play the traditional game. And with a wide range of fitness and skill levels among our participants, it is fun, social and a great opportunity to reap the mental and physical health benefits of being involved in active sport again.

Walking Football Nelson is also as much about the social aspect and 'the after match' as it is about the sport. This is a great way to keep active while also keeping social.

​This is a great opportunity to meet new people and form some great camaraderie every week.​ Not to mention the social aspect after each session...! Welcome to all new and existing members.
