Cumberland FA Walking Football League
The Cumberland FA Walking Football League is a league for people aged 50 and over who enjoy playing football but want to do so at a slower pace. The league was founded in 2014 and currently has 10 teams.
How to play
Walking football is played in the same way as traditional football, but with a few modifications. Players must keep both feet on the ground at all times, and there is no tackling. The game is also played on a smaller pitch, with smaller goals.
Where to play

The league plays its matches at various venues across Cumberland, including:
- Carlisle United's Brunton Park
- Workington's Borough Park
- Penrith's Eden Valley College
