Whether you want to get back to playing football or fancy trying something new, Walking Football is a fantastic, social game played as the name suggests - at a walking pace.

We run sessions at Haydon every Tuesday and Thursday 12:30pm-1:30pm.

There's no need to book, just turn up and pay at reception. Price is £4.20 per session.
