ANYONE wishing to give walking football a go can do so at Basingstoke Sports Centre at 10am on Monday.

Walking football is a five-a-side game for over-50s, where the rules have been adapted so there is no running.

With less stress on the body it is an ideal exercise for the older age group.

Walking Football runs in Farnborough and has proved very successful, the benefits being improvements in cardiovascular fitness and joint mobility as well a reduction of the chances of developing cardio vascular disease.
