***NEW AFTERNOON WALKING FOOTBALL SESSION COMING SOON***
Starting on Monday 9 September, 1.30pm to 2.30pm at Summerfields Leisure Centre

Are you aged 50+? Do you wish you could still play, but find the game too fast these days? Walking football is a great way to keep fit and rediscover your competitive side and love of football.

Due to the slower pace and reduced contact, walking football reduces the risk of injury and is a fun way to stay active.

This session is part of the Active Sussex 'Stronger for Life' campaign, that aims to improve strength and balance for people who are at risk of falling.

To book your place: https://eequ.org/experience/9252
