A sport that has received an unexpected profile after featuring in a recent advert on TV! Not aimed at a specific age group but perfect for those whose circumstance dictates that walking would be better than running.

Bridgwater Walking Football - Wednesdays 11.00am at Hinkley Point pitches, Bath Road. Outdoors on 3G Astroturf
