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.
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??
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!
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."
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...
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.
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
