I searched “walking football match” to see what it’s all about for my Dad who would probably like to play it, but it seems like you can run? I don’t understand it and would like to know what the rules are??
Ciao buongiorno a tutti, mi sono avvicinato al calcio camminato dopo l'invito di alcuni amici che già lo praticava o, devo ammettere che la prima volta che ho visto una partita, mi sono messo a ridere, dicendo a me stesso che mai avrei giocato un calcio simile!!! Un amico mi ha invitato a provare, con scetticismo ci sono andato per la curiosità di scoprire un nuovo modo di intendere il calcio!. Confesso che inizialmente ho fatto fatica ad adattarmi, l'istinto mi portava a correre e a compiere movimenti abituali fatti in tanti anni di calcio vero. Piano piano mi sono abituato e adattato a queste regole, ho preso passione e oggi posso asserire di essere uno dei più assidui del mio gruppo!!! Sono ritornato a sentirmi un atleta. Invito tutti coloro che hanno praticato il calcio in passato e che amano questo sport, di provare, ne rimarrete coinvolti in modo totale. Un saluto a tutti.
Very slick and well produced film. I'd like to see more game footage but the clips shown suggest a familiar story of un-penalised running. I'm not sure it can be eradicated under such tolerant Referees.
I'm 56 a life long truck driver so not the fittest but I'm working on it. Joined a new WF club recently and I couldn't quite get my head around why I was pulled up for running, yet the established players are jogging past me with impunity? Same with all these videos on youtube? Lots of running with no free kicks given? For this to work there needs to be some consistency from referees.
I'm in the same boat ,really unfit and fancy trying it but they're all running and jogging, so dunno if it's for me to begin with ,seems that the refs have no idea what the actual rules are ,having watched a few videos of so called walking football
@@rob1969in A lot comes down to referee decision, some will jump on every single thing really slowing a game down. Our club held a referees course, and the trainer said it's down to the individual. Bear in mind a lot of time the ref is alone, rarely has assistants. And they have to make the decision to stop the game again or play the advantage, especially with a head height rule for example, if the team that should have a free kick is attacking well, let them continue. Of course there can be some timid referees, there's one regular tournament and it tends to be that club's junior staff that get lumbered with reffing, and let's be honest some old fellas are worse than children for arguing. It's all quite simple, though. "Play to the whistle. The referee's decision is final. No arguments."
Yeah man..... I've played Walking Football, and if you do it properly, it's quite hard, and strained my hamstrings due to being in half crouch most of the time. I had to walk quickly like Charlie Chaplin! No5 for England was running and therefore able to get more power into his shots due to momentum. To strike a ball with power with very little momentum is hard to do. Running, booo, cheats England, Indirect free kick to Italy!
I play walking Football and thoroughly enjoy it. My team are playing in a tournament in France in June, and the team are playing to the rules in readiness. I hope the other teams adhere to the rules unlike the players in this video, looks like a normal 6 a side match, running, and body contact, which is not allowed.
saw running and backing in...this is meant to be walking and no contact...get it sorted...if refs dont know the rules how can the players adhere to them...
As a 55 year old who loves football, and being nagged to play walking football, I am totally confused. Everyone is running. That's fine by me, as I think football is pointless and unplayable without it - but what are the actual rules?
Think I'm figuring it out. Jogging or running both involve picking the knees up, so what these guys are doing are legit (just about), although another game I've seen showed how they're actually supposed to move. I'm 52 this year and, TBH, I'd rather die from a heart attack caused by running and be able to show off my skills than potter around like this. No disrespect to the guys who enjoy it, but it isn't for me.
I play walking football, I would say as general rule of thumb we run each week but its more like a jog, no sprinting.I would hate to play this game in such small goals, you need an 11 aside all weather pitch.
See my comment..... I've played and had to walk fast, like a speed walker and it really tested my hamstrings and calves. Also very hard to beat a player and score. No running, jogging, trotting etc allowed! Only Walking... Hence Walking Football! Booo
Brilliant - A great advert for an ever increasingly popular sport for the older generations.
Brilliant running advert ,joke .
Thank you for upload.
Great Show !!
Greetings from the Walking Football Team of FC Schalke 04.
I just see them running everywhere !!! why named that 'Walking Football' ???
Brilliant
Most are running! I do not understand this.
I was thinking the same 😕
@@alandry6872 A fine way to ruin your golden years I fear.
I hope the standard of refereeing to allow a free kick to the opposition for obvious running during walking matches has improved in 5 years.
I enjoy this match keep it up age is just a golden number god bless do more match so i can enjoy i am a femaile over 50 striker and captain for a team here in jamaica doing training now and enjoying the game very much
Good luck Charmaine
Too much running!

Actually saw one actual piece of funning in the clips provided...and the ref did did actually penalise it....
I’m in America and love this idea I want to play

in italian "correre" (to run) and "camminare" (to walk) are two different actions: i didn't know in english they were synonimous! :D
If you close your eyes 75% it looks like a classic 😂😂

English cheats even at this the ville fools

Refs have to be strict and award indirect free kicks if running
Agree Rob, this definitely isn't walking football as I know it.
Hey up lads. DEFINE "WALKING"??????
always one foot on the ground
@@carrot8687 about as difficult to judge as Olympic race walking
Don't understand. They call it walking foot but they run
Just a normal game at the Emirates
What is walking football. ?I dont see the walking part?
I played for30 years and miss it terribly.
saw running and backing in...this is meant to be walking and no contact...get it sorted...if refs dont know the rules how can the players adhere to them...
Agreed, backing in clearly not allowed in the rules
Should be no physical contact at all and no bloody running!
Exactly, pathetic that there's so much flexibility in the rules

try it yourself and you won't realise when you are walking fast it can turn into running ha ha
These boys cant half "walk" fast !!!!
Yep....walking fast is actually allowed...
They are not doing any good to the game, it is Walking and not Running football. We play only walking in Spain see: walkingfutbol in youtube
Preach Spain preach
It shouldn't be called walking football they're all jogging and running ,I don't get it ,what's the point if the rules are so flexible?
It’s not walking football when half of these are running
walking football lot of running here
Too much running indeed
Sorry, but this is not what I personaly understand how walking football has to look like. They are still running. Comon!
English even cheat at this.
It’s suppose to be walking ffs.
Everyone is running.
what else do England cheat at then? The English are not exactly known for cheating are they you bellend?
But they're RUNNING . . . . :(
Too much running going on...

You can run? Then why the fuck is called walling football???
I though walking football is all about walking?? A lot of running/jogging.
Instances of running not pulled up, instances of backing in and unnecessary contact, great advertisement for veterans football but not "WALKING."
Far too much running 🏃♂️
I play walking football, I would say as general rule of thumb we run each week but its more like a jog, no sprinting.I would hate to play this game in such small goals, you need an 11 aside all weather pitch.
@Peter Are you serious, 1 step every 3-4 seconds? - Even a a funeral march moves faster!

not walking football
They run all the time... What a fake sport...
