65^th Festival of Sport (FOS) - Sport for Active Lifestyle Fun Day will be held on 30 August (Tuesday) at Chinese YMCA of Hong Kong Kowloon Centre. In order to broaden the public’s understanding, a number of newly emerged sports will be offered on the event day, namely walking football, floor curling, taspony, dodgebee, flyball, rock climbing, molkky, AR virtual sports, floor ball, and pickleball.

Let us introduce the walking football before enjoying it on the event day.

Walking football has been developed as a newly emerged sport in the United Kingdom since 2011. It is specially designed for people aged 50 or above and focus on players’ skills and safety, attracting a large number of middle-aged and elder football lovers to join walking football and gaining popularity in Canada, Australia, and Italy. Walking football is similar to futsal, but players must walk. They cannot run, kick the ball higher than six feet, and offend their opponents physically. Therefore, players can enjoy football and meet friends on the football pitch under a safe condition.

65^th FOS - Sport for Active Lifestyle Fun Day Each attendee can experience six sports disciplines on the event day. The trial will be allocated by YMCA. The event is free of charge. Register now if you are interested!
