DeeCee Posted April 5, 2023 Posted April 5, 2023 Strictly not ICBINF but has anyone played it? I had my first session last night, pulled a calf muscle lol but thoroughly enjoyed it. 6 a side with guys from 50+ to late 60s. Been toying with going for a few months, saw 10 minutes on YouTube and that was my only experience till yesterday. Haven't kicked a competitive ball for about 10 years (I'm almost 65) and by fuck was I rusty. And the ball seems heavier 🙄😂 Quote
Riversider28 Posted April 6, 2023 Posted April 6, 2023 I played pre-Covid at my local Sports Centre until I broke my ankle and ended up on crutches for 6 weeks. It was very embarrassing telling people I had done it playing walking football. I just stick to my non-contact interests like fishing, table tennis and paddle boarding now. 1 Quote
Tyrone Shoelaces Posted April 8, 2023 Posted April 8, 2023 Get down to Ewood if you want to see walking football at it’s finest. 5 Quote
oldjamfan1 Posted April 9, 2023 Posted April 9, 2023 I was never blessed with pace as @arbitro will confirm, so walking football came naturally to me and there is a particular skill to it, eg the timing/weighting of passing etc is quite different. But anyone with football intelligence should be pretty good at it. In my area it is REALLY competitive, to say the least! 2 Quote

Andy, you were the only player I ever came across who put weight on DURING a game. Ouch! 😂😂 3 Quote
