1. Walking Football Governing Bodies

There is more than one organisation in Great Britain, claiming to be the sport's governing body.  All of them were newly started in different regions as the sport developed and none are more than six or seven years old.  In the last couple of years the English FA have also become involved but there are huge regional variations in how 'far along' the game is with regards to leagues and tournaments, Cornwall is a bit late in coming to the party.

Set out below you will find links to some of the organisations who each claim to be the governing body of the game.  They all have slightly different systems in place and ideas for taking the sport forward and we in Cornwall can learn from their mistakes and take the best bits they have developed to make us a national force for good in Walking Football.

Troon AFC are proud to have two of its members on the newly formed  Cornwall FA Committee for Walking Football.

2. Walking Football Rules!

There is no one set of Walking Football Rules which covers all the clubs in the UK.

At Troon AFC we play to FA Rules but WFA principles and refereeing standards (Chris is the only qualified WFA Tournament Referee in Cornwall).

4. Money 

All subs go into the main Troon AFC account. The club then pays our insurance and facility hire. We are volunteers and take no money from the club. Not even travel expenses!

So please remember...we are doing our best, we are unpaid volunteers and just trying to make OUR club a happy and positive place. Oh. And play a bit of footie!⚽
