“Before starting family football I was quite apprehensive. I go jogging a few times a week, so I’m used to a little activity but was worried that I may not keep up with the other ladies. Also, I was worried that I’d have to know the rules of the game or be joining a well established group that wouldn’t be accepting of new members. I really didn’t need to worry. Everyone was extremely welcoming and friendly. You choose how much effort you put in and I often come away feeling sweaty and out of breath but having had lots of fun too. You don’t have to be super fit or have loads of knowledge of football to join in. I like that my children can join in many of the sessions, if I want them to! As well as improving my fitness levels, the groups have helped me to tone up and lose weight as well as making me a healthier person with my more sensible approach to food going hand in hand with the exercise. The sessions are very good value for money and I would highly recommend them to anyone of any age and any level of fitness.”
