Walking Football Club Update

December 5, 2023


Aljezur versus Odiaxere friendly on December 1st 2023, Odiaxere

Since the last Newsletter when we were a group of five grumpy old men meeting up for a ‘kick about’ down at the Centro de Juventude, we are now the fully-formed, thriving Aljezur Walking Football club which meets each week at the fabulous Campo Municipal each Wednesday at 10am to mid-day.

Having both the support of Amovate and the backing from the Camara, we are no longer grumpy but highly motivated (oldish) ‘athletes’ going from strength to strength!  The club has now about twenty members and it is remarkable how we are developing in both confidence and skill. Força Aljezur!

We have just had our first friendly away to Odiaxere where we gave as well as we got with fine performances from the squad of twelve.  We are arranging a return home game in the New Year and we invite anyone who is interested in playing this relatively new sport to come along on Wednesday mornings to spectate or play. First session is free, after that we charge 2 euros per session. Any profits made after paying for equipment go to local charity. We have players of all ability levels aged from 50 to 80, with many different nationalities represented. So come on down and join us for fun, fitness and friendship.
