Age-group competition

The league provides structured competition for older players across its age categories. Its format is specifically walking football, giving teams a route to regular league and cup competition without being part of the conventional running game.

League representative sides

Essex Walking Football League also has representative teams at over-50s, over-60s, over-65s and over-70s level. These sides give eligible players from participating league clubs an additional representative-football opportunity.

Finding a club or team

The league publishes a list of its clubs, with prospective players directed to contact a club directly. That is the practical starting point for anyone looking to join an Essex walking-football side.
