First ladies walking football festival to be held
Hosted by Pompey Ladies ITC Walking Football Club, players from across the south have been invited to take part in the festival.
Organiser Giorgio Colombi said: ‘The emphasis for this is festival and not a tournament and teams will be made up on the day from a mix of players from the various clubs so individual entries are therefore welcome.

The festival takes place on Sunday, March 24 from 11am-1pm at Roko/Play Football in Copnor Road.
Giorgio added: ‘Walking Football has enjoyed a rapid increase in popularity and participation among men over 50 – this has led to a demand from ladies to set up Walking Football for them.’
Sessions runs every Monday at the Goals Centre, Tangier Road between 7pm and 8pm and cost £2.
