What is Walking Football?
Walking Football is a unique small-sided ball game created by John Croot in 2011.
The biggest difference, as the name suggests, is there is no running. Walking football is played at walking pace, with players not allowed to run. This includes with the ball or off the ball, and includes jogging. You can ‘walk’ as fast as you want and walking as described in the rules is “one foot must be in contact with the ground at all times.”
One other big difference to association or 5-a-side football is that it’s classed as non-contact sport. Although tackling is allowed, this must be done with no contact.
Chilcompton Sports is proud to have both mens and womens walking football teams affialiated with the club.
