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.
LATEST NEWS...
Over 75s: Stellar performances from magnificent 7…
A great morning’s football for our 7-man 75s squad at Billericay in early June in the third tournament organised by the EWFL. The squad picked up 7 points from 3 group games to top the group. In the last game -- between top and 2nd -- we drew 0-0 with a very good Oakley team (who we had beaten in the group) but unfortunately lost a penalty shootout which went to sudden death. Brian Byford was a standout performer in goal. Details here.
