Walking Football is more than a sport – it is another opportunity for people of all ages to remain physically active, socialize and take care of their health. The rules of this sport prohibit running, the players walk and the focus is on recreation, team play and socialization. This makes it an ideal choice for older people, rehabilitation patients, chronic patients, diabetic patients, disabled people, as well as anyone else that would like to lead an active and a healthy lifestyle.
The Zan Mitrev Clinic, as the founder of Walking Football in Macedonia continues its mission to spread this sport and announces the organization of a large international tournament in our country in the near future. The Clinic has a clear vision to create a movement to foster sport, health and active lifestyle irrespective of age in order to make Walking Football available to the broader public and stimulate the building of a community that will have a healthy and an active lifestyle.
