Coventry & District Walking Football Club hosted the Over 70s National Regional games at the Alan Higgs Centre with 6 teams competing in a round robin format. The 6-a-side teams from the North, South East (x2), South West (x2) and Central played 5 games of 20 minutes each over a 2 hour period. Some good football was played and the event was well attended by supporters from each team.
Our own Dave Floy made his debut for the Central Region (who had a difficult day with only 7 players available) as other teams rotated players from their larger squads.
A number of our club members turned out to ensure the event went smoothly by setting up and marking out the pitches and goal areas, then breaking them down when the games had finished. All helping the players and their team staff to just focus on their games.
Again, another successful national walking football event hosted by our club and organised by Alwyn Day our Club Secretary.
