Welcome to Eastwood Falcons Walking Football Club​​...

We’re here for players over 50 who don’t see age as a barrier to enjoying

the beautiful game. We welcome walking football players from all over Southend,

Leigh, Rayleigh, Westcliff and beyond.

 

We began as a small group in 2015. Several founding

players had links to the Eastwood Falcons of  the 

1970s and resurrected the name when EFWFC was

formalised in 2016. We exist to:

- Enjoy our football (and the banter)

- Improve and maintain fitness

- Meet people with similar interests

- Offer competitive opportunities if desired

 

Training is year-round and open to anyone who enjoys a kick-about regardless of skill level. Our over-50s, 60s,  65s and 70s men’s teams play in the Essex Walking Football League (EWFL) and the Walking Football National Cup with selection at the discretion of the team managers. We also have an Over 75s squad which in the current 2025 season is playing in a number of friendly tournaments ahead of a possible EWFL 75s division being launched in 2026.

 

Join us. For the love of the game.​

Irish Falcons: Wonder goal for Gary; debut for John

 

Falcons Gary Mathews and John Smith pulled on the green of Ireland in late August to represent the country at The Maureen Evans International Memorial Cup walking football tournament held in Neath, Wales.

 

The tournament featured teams from Wales, England, Ireland and a Caribbean squad with competitions at levels from Over-50s up to Over 70s in a round-robin group format.

 

Gary had his shooting boots on again and scored against England (“as usual” according to Gary) and Wales as Ireland won the Over-60s division. The Welsh captain described Gary’s goal v Wales as the best he’d seen (video evidence required) .

 

John made his  international debut for the over-70s Irish squad who ended the day with one win and 3 defeats.

 

A great performance by both our Irish Falcons.

Congratulations.
