About Cardiff City Walking Football Club

Founded in 2019, Cardiff City Walking Football Club has grown to be one of the largest walking football clubs in Wales. 

The club is dedicated to promoting physical health and mental wellbeing among men in their 50's, 60's, 70's and older through the sport of walking football. 

This adapted version of football allows participants to enjoy the game without running, making it accessible and safe for older adults. 

We play the majority of our walking football on the state-of-the-art indoor facilities at the
Ocean Park Arena in Cardiff.

The club enters age-category competitive leagues and tournaments where we visit other facilities across Wales, England
and further afield.

We offer a range of activities designed to keep participants active, engaged, and social. No previous footballing skills required!

Members typically start with warm-up sessions involving light stretching to prepare their bodies and prevent injuries. The core activity is the walking football training matches, which follow specific rules that prohibit running and any contact.

Beyond the games, the club frequently organises social gatherings, fostering a strong community spirit.
