I've been playing this in Carnoustie for a few weeks now. I love it. It does take a week or so to get into it as no running is allowed but a very enjoyable hour.

I hope this is a big success. My cousin plays and loves it. I am getting near the age where I might even consider it soon. Its not looking too good for today though.

Been playing since 2015 ( I'm 61 now ) if you ever liked playing football no matter the level this is for you. A few tips:
A) If you haven't exercised regularly for a few years it's 50/50 you'll strain something in the first half hour, even if you don't you will be surprised at how much effort is actually involved. You will get used to it, I lasted 30 minutes of my first hour long session, I now play a minimum of 2 hours every week even though I smoke like a lum .... I am 'not' the fittest guy in our team
B) If you become part of a well organised club / team and you haven't been to a team piss up within 3 months there's something wrong with your club, this is as much about socialising as playing fitba, if it isn't it should be.
C) You will behave just the same as you did when you were in your prime the minute you cross the white line, no matter how old you are you will forget to act your age.
D) Age specific tournaments were on the go before the pandemic hit 50 and over and 65 and over usually. There are also tournaments abroad teams can play in, though obviously these are few and far between just now. My club played in Portugal in 2016 and were headed for Spain last year until the pandemic put paid to that.
Unless the club / team you join is full of assholes ( highly unlikely ) it will be one of the best things you ever doLast edited by NAE NOOKIE; 21-07-2021 at 12:37 AM.

I agree with everything said by Nae Nookie above. Out here in Linlithgow we had an invite to a large tournament in Blackpool last weekend, our over 50s team got beat in the semi final (by an own goal) by the eventual winners and our over 60s won their group.
Trophy presented by Alan Kennedy the Liverpool legend. Unfortunately I chose not to go!!!
