About us

We are a group of Men and Women who, although not as quick or skillful as we once were, still enjoy playing the beautiful game. Walking football allows us to do this within the confines of a (mostly) non-contact sport. We are members of Brightlingsea Regent Football Club which is based at North Road Brightlingsea,  Essex. 

We train on Sunday morning at The Colne Community School and College, Church Road, Brightlingsea, Colchester, CO7 0QL, England at the back on the Astro turf. We meet at 9.15am for a 9.30am start.

We play between ourselves at training and in friendlies with other teams, but we also go the North Alliance Walking Football league  where a more competitive game. 

We aim to encourage exercise, fitness and social interaction for the over 50s whilst doing something we enjoy. 

Walking Football  is on a smaller pitch, played from 5 to 8 a-side. The rules are similar to 5-a-side football, BUT no running!!! Also the ball must be under head height, crossbar level.

Brightlingsea Regent Walking Football Club have been going for over 8 years , new people are always very welcome to come along and join us whether its just to watch, socialise or join in.

We have regular training sessions and those that want to play can join in the occasional matches with other local teams. Do as much or as little as you want at your own pace. All abilities are welcome, even if you have never played football before!
