Women to play walking football in FA People's Cup for first time

For the very first time women will be able to take part in their own official walking football cup competition.

The FA have launched their women's own category for the game, in which players are not allowed to run.

It was invented to keep people over the age of 50 involved in football because it is played at a slower pace.

He said the new of women's walking football category was evidence of football's increasing level of inclusion.
