ADVENT CALENDAR: Day 14

Time to feature another of our established partners on the Community Advent Calendar ... Fleetwood Town Flyers Football Club.

About now (Wednesday 11am - 12.30pm) 40 or so men will be enjoying the regular Wednesday walking football at Poolfoot Farm Sports & Leisure Complex. There's usually enough players for a mini-tournament each week but the emphasis on this session is fun and exercise.

The Flyers host 3 sessions a week for men aged 50 and over - the friendly Sunday morning session is in the Dome at Poolfoot. If you do want to play at a more competitive level, the Friday evening session is faster-paced and the Flyers have teams in age groups 50+, 60+ and 70+ taking part in regional tournaments and leagues.

They are doing great work supporting physical and mental health - on and off the field.

Alongside Fleetwood Town Community Trust, members of the Flyers set up the Talking Men group, who meet every Thursday at Verona Hall in Thornton Cleveleys, from 6pm to 8pm for conversation over a cuppa.
