Welcome to PPK Walking Football Club (PPKWFC), where we’re‌ passionate about promoting health, social participation, and fun for people of all ⁢ages through⁢ the exciting sport of walking ⁤football.

The 260th​ “Walking Football‍ Meeting” – A ​Fun-Filled⁤ Event

Our recent ⁣event, held on Tuesday, August 27th, was a huge success, with 13 participants enjoying a⁣ day of walking football under‌ the “Anyone Can Challenge! Walking Football” rules.

The event took place at the Ichikawa Ekiminami Community Center in​ Ichikawa City, Chiba Prefecture, where we ‌utilized ⁣a small ⁢basketball court on the third floor.

What ⁢is Walking Football?

Walking football is a‌ variation of soccer that’s played on foot, with an emphasis on fun and​ enjoyment for all participants. To⁤ make it⁤ accessible​ to everyone, ⁣running and physical contact are prohibited. Whether you’re a ⁣seasoned athlete or a complete beginner, walking football is an‌ excellent way to stay active, ⁣improve ⁤your health, ⁣and meet new people.

Event Program

Our ‍event program included a range of activities, ⁣such as:

• Radio calisthenics No. ‍1
• Ankle training
• Walking (6km/h, 10m in 6 seconds)
• Cognisize (A walking game​ about the ​Yamanote Line throughout history)
• Two people‍ can stop it
• Bird Cage⁤ 4 vs 2
• Life‍ Kinetic Divide into 3 teams and name pass
• 5-player game: ‍Divide into 3 teams and rotate ⁤for 5 minutes

In the five-a-side⁤ game, we introduced a special rule to discourage strong shots, which added an extra layer of excitement‌ to the game.

Walking football offers ‍numerous benefits, including:

• Health Promotion: It helps maintain health by eliminating lack of exercise, improving physical strength, and strengthening‍ cardiopulmonary function.
