Wiltshire became national champions at over 60s walking football on Sunday, May 21 with victory in the inter-league championships held at Redditch.
The Wiltshire team, comprising three players from Salisbury Walking Football Club, beat county teams from Surrey, Dorset, Greater Manchester and South Wales to win the trophy.
Walking football is a fast-growing sport for men over 50 and women over 40.
It can be played at a recreational level and at a more competitive level.
Salisbury Walking Football club offers opportunities to play at both levels and there are great physical and social benefits of doing so.
There are also clubs in Amesbury and all over Wiltshire.
