⚽ FROM ONE PROGRAM TO THE INDUSTRY STAGE
Three years ago, Walking Football 4 Health Victoria started with a simple belief:
Sport should be accessible to everyone.
This week, that belief takes us to one of our biggest stages yet.
Walking Football 4 Health Victoria will be at the Aquatics & Recreation Victoria Industry Conference as a Silver Partner — and we’ve also been invited to speak on an industry panel in front of around 500 people from across the sport, recreation and aquatic industries.
🎤 The discussion will focus on trends and new innovations shaping the future of our industry.
For WF4HV, this is an opportunity to share what we’ve learned while growing from one program to a statewide network of Walking Football programs across Victoria.
Our innovation is simple.
Instead of asking people to fit into traditional sport, we’re adapting sport to fit the community.
We’re removing barriers to participation and creating opportunities for older adults, people with disability, women, families, culturally diverse communities and people who simply want a more accessible way to become active and connected.
Walking Football isn't just about what happens on the court or pitch.
It's about physical health, mental wellbeing, friendships, belonging and community connection.
To go from one program to now having the opportunity to share our story and vision with hundreds of industry professionals is a significant moment for WF4HV.
But we're still only getting started.
Our vision is to make Walking Football accessible to communities right across Victoria — and to demonstrate what can happen when sport, health and community come together.
