As part of its aim to further increase the opportunity for everyone to get involved in playing footbal, the club are delighted to offer the opportunity for people to come along to Bathgate Sportscentre on 22 January and take part in walking football.

The club, along with our partners at Xcite Bathgate, are offering 3 free weeks of taster sessions to encourage uptake in what is becoming an increasingly popular sport both here and on the continent.

Although predominantly run for adults 50+, these sessions will be open to men and women of any age to come along and try it out as a new hobby, to increase fitness, or even to socialise. The club would be happy to welcome new faces along to take part.

The first session takes place at 5pm on Friday 22 January at Bathgate Sportscentre. All that is required to take part is a pair of training shoes and plenty enthusiasm!

Anybody wishing to come or note their interest should contact club vice-chairman at james@bathgatethistlecfc.com or 07734845462
