Football ⚽ started back last Monday 5th with the players being given the new strips for the season ahead, followed by a few drills and some games. The session was inside due to -6 weather outside.

This coming Monday 12th the weather is gonna be a tropical 🌞 9c so looking good for an outdoor training session.

Why don't you come along and join us? A new year may bring a new hobby. Opportunities exist within our club to come along and train and if all being well the chance of competitive football in leagues, league fixtures are only every other month so won't fill your calendar.

Training every Monday Calderhead High School Shotts 7pm - 9pm

45 years and over welcome.

First month free as taster sessions. £20 pm thereafter which is super cheap for 8hrs of football per month then matches.

Merry Christmas from us all at Shotts Bon Accord Walking Football 🎅🎅

As you can see most of us have been on the pies and takeaways this year, fitness training come January id think 🤔

This year has been our best year yet so keep following our posts in 2026 as we have a lot of plans to share.

15/12/2025

Training tonight as usual 7pm to 9pm at Calderhead High, all welcome. Get some use out of those boots before Santa 🎅 brings you a new pair.

Our new strips are now in production and here is a preview, aren't we gonna be the finest looking team you have ever seen? Granted we might take the team photo when a couple of lads are on holiday to make sure.

On a serious note we are excited to get the strips and get started with the serious stuff in the New Year.

We are very grateful to the lovely people at Bca Insulation for sponsoring us, a local company in Shotts sponsoring a local team. Feel free to pop by their Website & page and have a look at what they do.

Last night despite the very cold ❄️ temps the lads opted to train outside even though we had an inside option. 20 bodies we had at training last night & that's with a few regulars missing. The commitment we have from the lads to train & improve is impressive.

As ever the session began with everyone performing the warm up, well if warming up at 0 degrees is possible, then onto various drills based on encouraging good habits. Can you teach old dogs new tricks? It certainly seems the coaches can. Moving onto the game it was quite a low scoring affair & that's fantastic as the whole team has tightened up to help the lads at the back.

We also seen another new player join who seen our Facebook posts, good experienced player who I'm sure moving forward can become a great asset to Shotts WF.

Fancy trying Walking Football? Get in touch for free taster sessions.

Are you over 50 and looking for a way to stay active?

Why not come and give Walking Football a try?

Walking Football is a great way to continue to play football at a slower pace with less chance of injuries.

Walking Football is as equally competitive as normal football so do not let the walking part put you off.

Unfortunately there is a massive stigma about Walking Football in general and a lot of people laugh about the game and think it is played at snails pace but it is far from it.

Truthfully a lot of people would enjoy Walking Football if they gave it a try.

Yes there is slightly different rules than the mainstream game and nearly all new players are shocked that the standard is far superior than they originally expected.

Majority of new players soon adapt and wished they had given Walking Football a try a lot sooner and continue to play Walking Football after their first session because they enjoyed it that much.

Walking Football is very good for all our social, mental and physical wellbeing and as well as getting you out of the house and giving you something to do.

Walking Football gives you a chance to be a part of a team and meet new people no matter what your football ability and football history is you will be welcomed with opened arms.

Wether you want to come and play competitive football or just come along and join our sessions then we are the club for you, we accommodate both.

At Shotts Bon Accord our weekly session is every Monday night from 7pm to 9pm on the 4g pitch at Calderhead High school ML7 4DH, if the weather is bad we use the indoor hall. So training is always on

Your first month is FREE as a taster to see how you like it, then subsequent Months are £20pcm

Please wear either Astro turf trainers or football boots with moulded plastic studs on them.

Do not wear any football boots with metal studs or metal blades on them.

We have a Walking Football Watts app chat to communicate team information.

Please view and follow our page Shotts Bon Accord walking football and do not hesitate to ask for anymore information that you may need.

Scunnered that the weekend is over? Well we have a group of lads here that love Mondays as that means Walking football ⚽ why not join us? Small mistake on the last post as it's an inservice day at Calderhead high we move to Cleland tonight. ( Link below )

Some of our lads attended the SBA 2019/20s quiz night at the weekend and despite being massive underdogs they came home with the gold medals. Despite protests from the jealous crowd it was proven Google wasn't used once. :) these claims were because we got most of the questions right. For a bunch who struggle to stand upright they done good.

Gotta say though the lad going by the name Div counting the scores was slightly suspect but I'm told it was an achievement him turning up.

In all seriousness well done guys and well done the 2019/20s in putting it together.

last Monday 10th Nov we took on Webata at our training ground in a little round robin. Shotts Bon accord WF had two teams and Webata brought one, the coaches set this up as a barometer of how we have progressed. Webata quite frankly Skooshed the league they were in so why not challenge ourselves against proven winners!! Overall it was a great run/walk out and gave the highly paid coaches here at SBAWF something to ponder ahead of our maiden voyage into league duty in January.

So this Monday 17th Nov training as usual at Calderhead High Shotts 7pm to 9pm. Why not come along? lots look down on Walking football thinking it would be too easy but hey its not!!

Can you come along and Mark our Mark? can you even jostle with John? or even move like Maffa? lets see. So join a mixture of guys with nae hair and grey hair and show us what your made of.

Shotts Walking Football has always been about getting guys 45+ out and exercising & improving mental health. Now we have added a competitive element into our club for those who fancy it whilst still encouraging those who play for a kick about.

Last night's 2hr session consisted of a couple of drills then into games with the sides set out with our imminent move into league football in mind. The only downside was we all got a little wet 💦 The mighty Shotts BA WF are putting 2 sides into the West of Scotland league, gone are the days struggling for numbers which is testament to everyone involved from Coaches to players who make any new recruits most welcome. Last night we welcomed Stuart another goalkeeper and he looks a fantastic addition to a position we were seeking.

Do you fancy joining us? Wether you want to play competitive or not everyone is welcome at Shotts BA WF, give us a message.

Last night we went along to Shotts Spiritualist Church ( link below 👇 ) to collect a very generous donation of £600.

The church had a fundraiser last week and the chosen donations were to Huntington's & Shotts Walking Football, our group were absolutely delighted to be chosen and shows we are becoming known in the community for doing good things, we can't thank the Spiritualist Church enough for this much needed boost to our funds.

Pictured is Craig & Scott receiving the Cheque from Eddie.

Remember new members are always welcome along on a Monday evening to training, 7pm to 9pm at Calderhead High. The Club is moving into playing competitively and there's never been a better time to join us on this journey.
Of course we also accept guys coming along for fitness & wellbeing as that's always been at our core.
