Walking Basketball is a fun, inclusive, and low-impact version of the traditional game.

It's designed to make basketball accessible to people of all ages and abilities, whether you're looking to stay active, return to sport after a break, recover from injury, or simply enjoy a social activity.

Walking Basketball offers a safe and enjoyable way to improve fitness, coordination, and confidence.

Played at a walking pace with adapted rules, the game promotes teamwork, friendship, and wellbeing while retaining all the excitement and skill of basketball.

No previous experience is necessary - just come along, get involved, and discover how Walking Basketball can help you stay active and connected.
