Dear Community,

Please see below a project that is due to start On 22nd November in Hitchin. Many thanks, Alex

Watford FC’s Community Sports & Education Trust is delighted to announce the start of the Over 50’s Walking Football Project in North Hertfordshire.

Thanks to the support, through funding from Herts Sports Partnership to begin the programme, the sessions will begin on:

Thursday 22^nd November 2012 from 9:30am – 10:30am and will take place indoors at:

North Hertfordshire College/Sports Centre

Hitchin Centre

Cambridge Road

Hitchin

SG4 0JD

Sessions will continue to run every Thursday at the same time every week.

There is a small fee of £1 per participant.

The main rules of Walking Football are very simple, you CANNOT move faster than walking pace.

All the other rules of football remain the same.

The aim of this project is to engage the older community in football related activity to improve their physical, mental and social wellbeing by taking part in regular sessions.

The programme will be delivered for an hour a week and will aim to encourage older participants to come and join in at a slower paced version of football in a fun, safe and structured environment.

There will also be the opportunity for teas and coffees after the session.

To register your interest in this programme or any further questions, please contact

Alex Kaufman at either or 01462 424242 (ext 4061) please supply your full name, address and contact number.

Welcome to the Hitchin Forum!
