Over 18's welcome, typically most players are over 50's ,however if you want to try ,possibly recovering from a health condition etc or you just want to get fit, then you are very welcome to play .
Wear comfortable clothing i.e. shorts, tracksuit bottoms. For footwear either wear plastic molded stud football boots or trainers (no metal studs) and please bring a bottle of water.
We welcome new players however we have limited number of players to each session .Please do not turn up thinking you can play straight away as it might be full, contact Chris before attending.
New players need to bring some contact details with you, and complete a registration document and you will receive a short introduction to the game at your 1st session. We then do a warm up, and play for about 55 minutes.
There is no fee for registering to play with Skipton WFC.
Our 1st session 25th March 2018 had 6 players.
March 2023 we have 80 players registered with 61 playing regularly.
We have players of all abilities though most of our players use to play in the local leagues when they were 'younger''....
It is not about how good your are, it is about having fun, meeting friends and getting fitter.
Even though you are walking ...it is a good cardiovascular workout... trust me , playing for 50 minutes....you will get fitter. But you go at your own pace.
We are affiliated to the Walking Football
